LiamGBailey · Mar 22, 2016

looking to upgrade my pc so i can play tom clancy's the division, but my current cpu is too weak. I have about £170 for a new cpu and motherboard. looking to play the game at around 40 - 60 fps on decent settings. current video card is his radeon 7950 iceq boost

Do you need memory or do you already have it? And if so DDR3, or DDR4?

An i3-6100/6300/6320 can max it, with a comparable GPU.
What CPU do you have currently?

LiamGBailey :

So you tried adding a graphics card to your system? I'm sure the CPU is atleast alright.

RCFProd :

im just concerned about my average fps, I played the beta and was getting like 20 fps and was really choppy. but no, i havnt tried adding another video card, if this cpu is fine to play it then i might consider getting like a 390 or 970.

I was considering a fx 6300, the minimum for division is 6100, but after looking at this: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/AMD-FX-6300-vs-AMD-A8-7600 i think upgrading my gpu might be a better option

Nah but don't compare at CPUBoss because they always get it totally wrong. For example FX-6300 is quite better, faster single core speed but with added L3 cache, and just 2 more physical cores.

But It's irrelevant, I think you should just upgrade the GPU. Not an R9 390/GTX 970 but something like a GTX 950 or perhaps a GTX 960/R9 380.

Is your power supply good enough for a graphics card?

RCFProd :

already have ddr3

LiamGBailey · Mar 22, 2016

Well my current video card is 500watts and it runs fine, so i would think so

if it games you want to do go for a video card. not the CPU. it is not the right time to get a new PC anyways. AMD zen should be coming out this year. and once that is out and it is as good as AMD said it would be. Intel will come out something to counter that. than you have the choice to pick what kinda upgrade you do. so the best thing to do for now is wait if you have a working pc.

LiamGBailey · Mar 22, 2016
