Hello,

my PC spec:
Intel Core i5-3450
MB: MSI Z77A-G43 - Intel Z77
8GB RAM
Seasonic S12II-520 520W

And my Sapphire HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 died. Is it worth upgrading to better graphic card instead of buying new PC? And can u recommend some please. Around 200$ would be nice. Thanks

Your CPU is fine and 8GB of RAM is still enough for gaming. So no need to buy a whole new PC.
The rx 480 4GB is the card to go for if you have a budget of 200$ (If you are from the US).
