The machines spec upon delivery is:

ASUS P6T x58 Motherboard

i7 (930)

6gb of memory

240gb SSD

Nvidia 610 2gb Graphics card.


I'm quite content with the rest of the spec but I'd really like a graphics card that will run SWTOR and similar games with a good FPS rate on high settings but without breaking my bank account.

Any suggestions?

Some other good budget options would be an R9 270X, R9 280 or even a GTX 760 (their price has plummeted since the r9 285 was released)

If these are a little too pricey then take a look at the R9 270 and the GTX 660/660ti mentioned above

It really depends upon what you can afford!

500W *Should* be enough but it all depends on the specifications. Do you know the make/model of PSU?
