ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCU II 4GB + XFX 500W 80+ Bronze

Gameduck · Jul 25, 2014

Hello everyone,

So, I'm now shopping for a new GPU And need some adwice. Is the ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCU II 4GB Any good? And should I even upgrade? I have a ASUS GTX 650Ti 1GB And i7-2600k. I get 40-65 FPS In BF4 on HIGH Preset and I want some more. How much would that R9 270X Boost my FPS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you! -Gameduck

I'm not sure if this will give you an indication, but take a look at this Watch Dogs review.

Scroll down. You can see the 270 should give you much better FPS. I chose this game because it is pretty new.

not by much since you can compare a R9 270X with a GTX 660 (non Ti). Also, 4 GB of VRam will not get you better performances. It is useless on this card this it can't run games in 4K which would need more than 2 GB of Vram.

I didn't see anything about 4k. Either way, it will be a better card... but probably not worth an investment.

I'd go to at least the 280x.

What is your CPU?
R9 270x is much more faster than GTX 650 TI but there is no need in- 4GB for R9 270x, because it will reach its performances limitation before limitation of VRAM in situations of 1080P. You can see here about BF4 - http://www.hardocp.com/article/2014/03/10/amd_radeon_r9_270x_270_video_card_review/5#.U9Jmufl_t1M.
Instead of purchasing R9 270x with redundant memory, you should take that GPU with less memory in order to save money or invest in R9 280 which is more expensive and earn more performances.
