What do you suggest i upgrade for more FPS??

Andrew Mirley · Oct 23, 2014

HEY! Could anybody give me some advice on my system? Im trying to achive a good boost in FPS... I play most games fine, but would like to record footage of Dayz:Standalone.
I got 40/50 FPS out in the open, but in towns were talking 20 FPS..

GRAPHICS CARD: GTX 650 ti
PROCESSOR: FX-6300 6 core
MOTHERBOARD: m5a78L-USB3
RAM: 12 GB DDR3

Any suggestions? I can spend £150. Thanks!

EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions all. I did plan on using Nvidia's Shadowplay to record with almost no FPS drops... Are there any equally decent nvidia suggestions? Was looking at this;

FYI Day-Z is badly optimized,no matter how powerful system you have,you will get low FPS,even on low settings.
But this card should give a nice boost nontheless:

You might be able to find a Radeon R9 270X for that money, which would give you a useful frame-rate boost...

Oh, well found...

This is probably going to give you the most significant upgrade http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-r9280gaming3g the R9 280's are going for great prices at the moment. If you try and overclock your processor a bit you will see some improvement there too though you may need an aftermarket cooler

Thanks again guys.

If you're gonna use Shadowplay,definitely go for the GTX 760.

Andrew Mirley · Oct 23, 2014

LukaBoki :

Might just do that, any other suggestions guys?

LukaBoki · Oct 23, 2014

You can wait for the release of the GTX 960,which is postponed to Q1 '15 I believe.
That's another option.

Get the R9 280 AMD has an alternative to Nvidia's Shadow play and it works great!

Andrew Mirley · Oct 23, 2014

LukaBoki :

As much as i would like to do that, i am an impatient man

Out of the GTX 760 and the R9 280, it seems the R9 is winning comparison battles. Is there a better nvidia graphics card i should consider? Or go with the 760 as the best card for the price, than can use shadowplay?

LukaBoki · Oct 23, 2014

The GTX 760 is the best card you can get for 150 quid if you wanna use Shadowplay.

Andrew Mirley · Oct 23, 2014

Thanks everyone! If anyone has another suggestion then please make yourself known, if not the 760 gtx is the one for me.

Andrew Mirley :

Clearing you didn't saw my post. The R9 280 is faster and AMD has shawdow play of its own that works equally as good as Nvidia's.

Andrew Mirley · Oct 23, 2014

ifreestylin :

Sorry i did not know that. Could you tell me what the official AMD version is please? As i will consider the R9 280 if thats the case.
