Ok, so i already know that i posted a question about this a while back. But however, I've been researching this for a while now and i want to know if what I've currently chosen for my new rig will do well with all of next-gen and play Far Cry 4 at max with 60fps:
New CPU: AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core
New GPU: XFX Radeon R9 280X 3GB Double Dissipation
New PSU: XFX 550W ATX12V
Bonus: Samsung SH-224DB/BEBE DVD/CD Writer
Bonus: Cooler Master JetFlo 95.0 CFM 120mm
My current specs:
PowerColor PCS+ HD 7850 2gb
AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz
Corsair Vengeance 8gb RAM
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus
Ultra 650 Watt PSU
Western Digital 1TB Hard Drive (Caviar Black)
MSI 970A-G46 Motherboard
Cooler Master Elite 430 Mid-Sized Tower
Now, i'm gonna wait for sales such as Black Friday or After-Christmas to upgrade. But i just wanted to know if there is an even better graphics card within a budget of $450 to $500 (accounting for rebates), that'll ensure that i'll be able to run all or most next-gen games at max settings, 1080p at 60fps on my rig. I am aware that i will need to update the BIOS on my motherboard in order for it to support the CPU correctly, but i know that i have to be careful with that as well. Unless it's fine as is, what do you guys think i should do? Also, will this card fit inside my case?
P.S I will not Overclock. I see no need to do that. And due to a previous thread, i was told that this current PSU will do fine.
