Specs:
Mobo: ASRock H61M-DGS
GPU: Powercolor 7750 1GB (going to buy this: http://us.ncix.com/products/?sku=78372&vpn=AX7870%202GBD5-2DHPPV3E&manufacture=PowerColor&promoid=1284)
CPU: i3 2120 stock @ 3.3 GHz
PSU: 500W CX Corsair
8 GB RAM
So I have posted here before asking if my PSU is enough, and i decided that it would suffice, even though i was told it wouldn't. I know its just $60 to get a better one, but i could be spending that money on a GPU and if the 500W is just enough, thats fine. I just want to know if the mobo and all my other parts will function properly once i upgrade to a new GPU. I know that the GPU will be kinda overpowering every other component, but that's okay because I don't need 7 extra FPS from an i5. Just to clarify, I have every component listed above right now, I'm just looking to upgrade my GPU from the shitty 7750 to a 7870. I really don't wanna pass up the deal at NCIX. If anyone knows if NCIX or other stores have these deals often or if the GPU will lower in price it would be helpful. If there are any better cards for my setup in the $200 range, I'm all ears as well. Thanks
