So basically I am looking to pump some pounds into my rig..... But want to spread the pain out a little.
So I'm looking for a GPU that can give me some decent excitement with bf4, the cryses games, a bit o' bioshock, cod that sort of thing.... Until I can afford getting a new motherboard and cpu.
I don't have the biggest budget of all time either....i could blag, max, a £130 gpu to the wife before things got ugly..... Then the next month or so.... About the same £ on a cpu/motherboard.
.... I played a lot more in my uni days.... About 7yrs ago....so most of my rig is that old....
AMD 64X2 5200 Dual Core 2.7Ghz
- GA - M56S-S3 Motherboard
- 6 GB (2x1)+(2x2) OCZ 800MHz DDR2 RAM
- Crucial bx200 240gb SSD
- 300GB SEAGATE HDD
- 600watt psu
- Alpine 64 GT CPU cooler
I have done a good bit of research and feel I'm drawn to the Sapphire R7 370 Nitro 4gb....
also (for later), i liked the look (and the price) of the AMD fx4300 black edition, as a good pair for the 370
But I also saw this....
http://www.awd-it.co.uk/amd-a8-7600-3.8ghz-quad-core-cpu-asus-a88xm-a-motherboard-ddr3-hdmi-4k-bundle.html
So...... Could the 370 nitro be a good one for me in the meantime until I get a motherboard and cpu? As in could my current system handle any of it until I can get the rest?
What motherboard would suit the fx4300 / r7 370 setup?
Is the dual graphics routw worth exploring with the A8?
Thanks so much guys......
