what the best gpu you can recommend that i should buy?

Zaraki Zenken Besin · Jun 19, 2015

first of all this is my current specs

cpu: i7-2600
mobo: asus H61M-c
ram : 1x8gb kingston hyperx fury
gpu : ASUS GTX 660 Ti DirectCU II OC
HDD : 1TB toshiba
PSU : silverstone SST-ST60F-P 600W

i plan to change my video card so whats the most powerful video card i should buy that will not bottleneck or well be ok with my processor?

laviniuc · Jun 19, 2015

nothing will bottleneck that.

however wait a few more weeks for the dust to settle with the new cards coming from amd, they may cause a price war and you get to buy a better graphics card for the same money

DeathRabit · Jun 19, 2015

GTX 970 for better GPUs or AMD cards you need better PSU.

ecoor1 · Jun 19, 2015

What's your budget? I just upgraded from 560 Ti to GTX 970 and been happy with that. From what i've understood the GTX 970 gives the best value for your $, at least in the case of NVIDIA GPUs. If money is not the issue, you can also go with the 980. 980 Ti might require a new PSU.

You can just squeeze by with your 600 Watt power supply and get the GTX 980 Ti, assuming that you have a quality brand.

and yet i have to say it again. wait a few more weeks, there's nothing wrong with the 660 i assume, so in a few weeks time you can either get a better grpahics card at the same price or the one you plan to get cheaper.

thanks for the advise guys , gtx 980 ti is good for me? i dont plan to change any of my parts except the gpu only

DeathRabit · Jun 21, 2015

Zaraki Zenken Besin :

With 980 Ti you will be losing around 10% GPU performance because limitation of your CPU,and Dx11 but with DX12 your CPU will stop limit GPU

Titan X have similar performance to GTX 980 Ti

DeathRabit :

they said gtx 980 ti is the best for me without any problems

so what is really the best gpu i can use for my current processor?

DeathRabit · Jun 22, 2015

Even if you OC your CPU this best GPU for you will be still GTX 970.
On 980Ti you will not get max possible performance but still will be faster compared to 970.
I recommend OC your CPU to have best possible performance from GPU * this do not matter which GPU you chose

About OC your CPU you can increase multiplier + 4 and get x38 - x42 (34+4+4) & depends to used threads this increase you CPU performance around ~11,7%

DeathRabit :

jsut to be say ,sorry sir but im scared of overclocking it i dont want to decrease my processor's lifespan

CPU life spawn is around 30+ years even if OC decrease it by 25% your change it before die

Well, he can't really OC because his CPU is locked.

DeathRabit · Jun 23, 2015

You CPU is not locked is “limited unlocked” :

Check my earlier post and links about OC

I didn't say he couldn't I said "he can't really"

Nobody asked the most basic question:
What is your monitor? If it's a 1920x1080 monitor, you don't need anything above a GTX 970 or the Radeon R9 Nano when it launches.

Zaraki Zenken Besin · Jun 25, 2015

cst1992 :

1366 x 768 is my max resolution of my monitor

cst1992 · Jun 25, 2015

Then get the best one you can afford. Even a relatively modest GPU like the GTX 960 should be enough for your monitor.

DeathRabit · Jun 25, 2015

Buy GTX 970 + Monitor Full HD

what the best gpu you can recommend that i should buy?
