So im upgrading my buddys rig for his birthday, and im just curious about a couple things.
How well does an a10 5800k in cfx with a 6670 perform at 1366x768 for games like farcry 3, dead island, diablo 3, crysis 2 and 3?
Im asking cause he currently has a monitor in that resolutio. And it doesnt really bother him. His build is an athlon 2 x3 450 3-core and a radeon 4670 with 2 gigs of ddr2 800. Obviously not cutting it for those games, although ive heard people who still have that tri core can pair it with a radeon 7850 or the likes and still get decent frames in new games.
So basically i was gonna upgrade him to a ~$150 1080p monitor with a gtx 650 ti boost, or leave his monitor and get an fm2 board with a10 5800k and a 6670.
Those are the 2 solutions im looking at. The 1080p screen and 650 ti boost is the more expensive at around 300 and i really would like to not spend more than that. If theres a better solution for around the same price, or you can justify it being more expensive, feel free!
Thanks in advance!
Edit: forgot to add that ill also be buying 4 gigs of ddr3 1333 ram. Nothin fancy, but nothin too cheap either. Havent looked around yet.
