Hi all,

I'm new around here and I'm wondering if anyone knows about some of the best graphics cards compatible with my motherboard (in title) and the Cooler master rs-500-pcar-j3 Power supply.

Please tell me if there is a limit on what I can use in my system or if I can use what ever card.

A price range of $200-$250 is preferred if possible (or $300 NZD because I will be buying in NZ)



If you have time please also answer this:

Will I able to use my new graphics card with my old Radeon HD 5830, using each graphics card for a monitor each. or If I use 2 monitors on my new card will it slow down the performance of the graphics card? one will be used primarily for internet browsing and the other for watching movies/gaming.

Thanks for your time,
Alec

Hi :) first i would suggest you to change a new motherboard if possible :) this motherboard already has quite some age(sorry for my rudeness).Despite your motherboard problem,I would suggest you to buy Sapphire HD7850:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102999 or Sapphire HD7870.For me,I am currently using a Sapphire HD7850 and can run even BF3 on ultra settings like a dream(well i overclock my card personally to making it become better) :) regarding your Crossfiring with HD5830, Here is your answer:http://www.google.com.my/imgres?imgurl=http://sites.amd.com/PublishingImages/Public/Graphic_Illustrations/WebBannerJPEG/AMD_CrossfireX_Chart_1618W.jpg&imgrefurl=http://sites.amd.com/us/game.

Well it clearly states that HD5830 is not compatible with the new card you are buying except you buying the cards compatible which shown in the picture :) Hope i helped :D

Thanks! Just the awnser I was looking for as I am going to be playing BF4 on it, I will look in to a new motherboard as well then. (however your second link is broken it just sends me to this link: http://www.google.com.my/imghp :p )

And would the Radeon R9 270X 2GB (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202063) be compatible with my system and be better or worse than the HD 7850, because the R9 270X comes with BF4 for free so Im thinking about that :p

No problem dude :) Yeah actually you can give it a try to R9-270X too :) But pay an attention on the Memory Bandwidth too :) R9-270X has only 104GB/s but HD7850 has 153.6GB/s.But since you want to get BF4 for free :) yeah R9-270X is not a bad choice though :) But for the performance then I cant say for sure because i didnt did any research nor did i own any of R9 series card yet :) go for the AMD website to check the card details before you make your purchase :) So that you won't regret for your own choice :D
