okci_o · Apr 10, 2016

Hi guys , these is what i have bought :

-MoBo :GIGABYTE GA-F2A88XN-WIFI
-Cpu : AMD A8 7600 3.8 GHZ - SKT FM2+ L2 4MB 65 PIB
-Ram : HyperX Fury 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) 1866 MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM
-cooler : deep cool radiator water cooling
-corsair vs550 80+ PSU

The question is :

What graphic card should i use for games ? I would be pleased to run medium details .

Thank you ! And i am still searching thru peoples builds

gtx 950 will be sufficient for this build .

I agree with dark_globe. I have an EVGA GTX 950 FTW and I have no regrets.

Thanks guys for the quick answer , two more questions

I have DDR 3 but the mother board says GDDR5 any issues with that ?

I have dual video link on my sistem , will that still work ?
Thanks

ddr3 is the system memory .
graphics cards have their own dedicated gddr5 memory .
no issues there .

Ok so after a long search i have decided to do a crossfire with Sapphire AMD R7 240 4Gb DDR3 PCI-E. And i will get top results for my sistem. . Thank you for your answers guys . This was my first post .

don´t do it ... amd 240 is very slow card .
single gtx 950 will give you much better performance compared to this hybrid XFIRE .

take a look at some benchmarks , even amd 260x is destroying those cards in CF let alone gtx 950:

yea crossfire 240's would get beat easily by a single gtx950 or a amd 280x or even a 280. 240's are ungodly slow and not even meant really for gaming. That would be a huge waste of money.

Ok ...cancelled the order just 2 minutes ago , i was happy that i can use the video card from the sistem with this gpu. Now i will look into what you sugested

okci_o · Apr 10, 2016

Ok , so this is 100£ more than what i would want to buy . Should i go with this ?
MSI NVIDIA GTX 950 Gaming 2 GB GDDR5 128-Bit Twin Frozr V Fan DL-DVI-I/HDMI/DP 3 DX12 Pci-E

azzazel_99 · Apr 10, 2016

That would be better than 2 240's

okci_o :

Spend a little more and get a gtx 970 !

dark_globe · Apr 10, 2016

please ...

why would he buy gtx 970 with that processor ...
it would be choked a lot so he would not use its full potencial anyways .

azzazel_99 :

Thanks guys . I will recieve the gpu tomorrow . Will play a dota in your name

okci_o · Apr 10, 2016

My build is not that great for gt 970 , and already spent 700£ for what i have

Epicness937 · Apr 11, 2016

not a 970 that cpu would bottleneck the crap out of it a 950 would be good a dont know about in your region but i can find a gtx 960 for only 35$ more than a 950 if you can get a good priced 960 get it however the cpu may give a little bottleneck

Epicness937 :

dark_globe · Apr 11, 2016
