upgrade to new gpu

spellfire · Feb 6, 2014

Hi
System
AMD PHENOM 960t
MB ASUS M5A99x EVO
Mem 8gb 2x4gb transend 2000mhz axe ram
GPU HIS radeon 6850 1gb gddr5
ssd 60 gb patriot pyro
Hdd 250 gb wd 7200rpm

I'm thinking of upgrading the gpu to a radeon 7770..How much improvement can I expect? Or is there something else in the same price range.

Thanx in advance

Bad idea because the HD 7770 is weaker than your GPU.

Hi
Thanx for quick reply
WOW so my 6850 is still a decent card for mid level gaming?? I really only play cod4 and at 1080p I get well over 100fps..Will get more games if my card is ok Thanx

Yes it is still ok, not the newest generation but better than HD 7770.

Thanx.
Thats good to hear..If I were to upgrade what would be a good card in the $100 range

I would increase my budget, otherwise it doesnt make much sense upgrading the gpu as you already have a decent one.

Generally u need to go atleast 3 tiers above ur current card to see a major improvement, in ur case it is 650ti boost/ 7850.
