Hey guys...

Quick question about my PC running Windows 8.1:
I'm upgrading my GPU from on board to the one below and I was just wondering if it will run games fine with my current processor: Intel Pentium G3258.

Current RAM: 2x4gb ddr3.

GPU I'm getting: Sapphire Dual-X Radeon R9 270X OC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card with Boost

PSU I'm getting: Corsair Builder Series CXM 600W Modular

More than enough for basic gaming mate :) You'll be able to run some of the latest games with that (just not FarCry 4) by sacrificing some detail. You might want to invest in an aftermarket heatsink and overclock your CPU provided you have a capable motherboard.

I have this for my CPU cooler / heat sink: http://www.amazon.co.uk/ARCTIC-Freezer-Pro-Rev-Multicompatible/dp/B002G392ZI/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1425079553&sr=1-1&keywords=arctic+freezer

Thanks BTW. What FPS + Quality are you estimating at that it will run smoothly at? (not recording)

Thanks. By the way guys, I am running dual monitor setup. Will that affect quality / fps? One is smaller than the other and my main is 16:9
