My 18th birthday is closing and I want to give myself a treat and finally enjoy playing games on high resolutions without fps drops, lags and so on...
I currently have one Sapphire Radeon HD 5750 (though it's not working its max because my CPU is real slow), and I'm thinking... Should I buy another one (that means I have to buy new MB as well since my MB has only 1 slot for a card) and use them both with Crossfire, or should I go for Sapphire Radeon R9 270? I also plan on buying Intel Core i5 4460. Is this processor going to bottleneck any of the combinations listed above?
Which one is cheaper, but better combination? Are these combinations going to be able to run newer games that require good computers (Watch_Dogs, Far Cry 4, mostly next gen. games), how long would it last (before even more system-eating games come out) and do you guys maybe have some better combinations or cheaper ones?
I'm not looking to max out settings in every game and play with 85FPS@85Hz (I use CRT monitor LOL). I just want to be able to play at 1080p (IF, that is, I save up for an LCD LED monitor, otherwise, 1024x768) on Medium, maybe High.
Thanks!
