So I have recently built a low end gaming PC with my father, all new parts except for the GPU which was taken from my old PC ( Nvidia GT240 1GB )
Specs currently:
PSU : 450W
CPU : Intel Pentium G2030 3.0Ghz Dual Core
GPU : Nvidia GT 240 1GB
RAM : 8GB DDR3 1333MHz
MOBO : Asrock H61M microATX
HDD : 1TB 7200rpm
OS : Windows 8.1
Now my problem I have is choosing between either the GTX 750ti or the Radeon R9 270
Both are around my price range at about R2500 or $250 or £145 here in South Africa
My main problem is my PSU. The GTX750ti does not require an extra power adapter which made me incredibly close to purchasing it, but I did some research and found out the R9 270 - with all the components I currently have would only 'require' a 350W PSU, seen as I have a 450W I hope im in the clear.
Which GPU would you recommend for gaming? I play on a 1280x1024 monitor and I would much prefer to be able to play on High settings for games such as Battlefield 4, Arma 3( Medium will do), Witcher 2 and so on..
Much Appreciated.
