GPU Buying Guide - (Read first post)
in Desktops ·
Hey there.
I've finally decided it's time to stop staring at low frame rates and actually upgrade my GPU, but I have a few lingering doubts. What would you consider the absolute best bang-for-your-buck card that won't exceed $367, and more importantly, can my current power supply handle the jump?
Here’s what I'm running right now:
CPU: AMD A10 6800k
GPU: Radeon hd 8670 D Apa
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A85XMA-E35
RAM: 2x4GB DDR3 2400MHz Kingston
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 3.5 sat DVD-LG DVDRW
DVD Drive: LG DVDRW
PSU: Power-Corsair 430 w Builder Series CX430M
Cooler: Noctua NH-L9a
Monitor: Monitor-Acer V223HQV/V213HV
Case: Sonex 6010 gaming micro ATX small
The most demanding thing on my list is probably just NFS Underground 3; everything else I play is pretty light.
I'm also planning on picking up an SSD eventually, though that might have to wait until next year when the budget allows for it. Thanks in advance.
