Hi I'm just looking for some advice on upgrading my current radeon HD 6870 1gb to something a bit better while staying in the $200usd or less price range. Right now my GPU is maxing out on memory and stuttering in some games at 1080p. My fx4100 at 4.2ghz is nearing its EOL but the games that I play are not new releases say the 2008/2013 era or so. Plus my CPU load is not maxing out like my GPU is currently, so for the time being upgrading the GPU I think would be a nice improvement till I get a new motherboard & CPU. I've been out of the PC scene for a while so I'm not sure what card would give me my best value thanks.
How would getting a fx6300 that are currently on sale for around $80 and a used HD7950 for around $100 work? I'm really thinking that might be the best of both worlds for my usage currently.
My PC specs are
Fx4100 at 4.2ghz
8Gb of ram at 1333mhz
HD6870 1Gb at 1080p
650w psu bronze +80 not sure on brand will check later
