Graphics, CPU, Upgrade

SGTTango · Aug 2, 2014

Hi,

I have a NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 Graphics Card, and a Intel Dual Core i5 Processor, I really need to know which one I should upgrade, I use my computer for gaming purposes and like to run the games smoothly aswell as on high graphics, can anyone tell me which is best to upgrade first and also recommend an upgrade?

Thanks.

Definitely the video card.
But make sure your power supply can handle the new video card.

GTX 750 ti consumes as much power as gt 640 but is a decent card. Anything above would cause bottleneck.

Thanks a lot, I have a 600W Xigmatek Power Supply, would that handle this graphics card? and would you recommend this graphics card also? http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/MSI+GeForce+GTX+660+Gaming+Edition+2048MB+GDDR5+PCI-e+Graphics+Card+?productId=58172 (I'm a software sort of guy rather than a hardware haha.)

Thanks Usman, I have just looked at that card, looks pretty ideal to me, would a 600W Xigmatek Power Supply handle that?

If it's an HC or MC series xigmatek power supply, you should be just fine, they're good quality stuff. ^^
The 660 is faster, but consumes more power, you would be fine with that PSU though.

Awesome thanks a lot!

You are good to go with that power supply.
