Will my PC build be capable of running most "next gen" games on high settings?

Tsar Kastic · Dec 28, 2015

Hi, I've recently upgraded my PC and I'm wondering if it was worth it, will these specs allow me to achieve high settings on most next gen games, the likes of Battlefront, The Witcher 3 and Rainbow Six Siege. Thanks.

My Specs (roughly):

MSI GTX 960 2GB
Intel i7 4790k
16GB RAM

yup but eventually you will need a gpu upgrade

You are better off getting less CPU and more GPU to get better gaming FPS. So if you go for i5 4460 and GTX 970 would make a lot more sense. Even the i5 4460 with a GTX 980 would even be better.

I would recommend upgrading to a gtx 970 in case you decide you want to use vr.
