I'll do a video card upgrade on my computer.

I want to help that I can buy.

I was thinking board AMD Radeon R9 380 or R9 380/370. The other question is that version, for example Nitro type of Sapphire I saw good reviews or have been awarded. The idea is that you can stay communicate in time without change so fast drawing that came out recently plates or new NVIDIA (GTX 1060) and RADEON RX 480.

He added that ITX size should be in the little space that I have in the case. From already thank you very much.

These are the components and whether it should change something else please indicate.


AMD FX 6300

ASUS Motherboard M5A78L-MUSB3 (chipset has AMD780G)

Video board Sapphire R7 260X OverClock

Kingston memory 8 gigs in Dual Channel DDR3 1333Mhz

Power Supply Sentey Model BXP65-ENT

Cool Cabinet Model Satellite L590 Engine

The Nvidia 400 series and up, AMD 7000 series and up support the DX12 API, but NOT DX12_0 hardware profile and up. For DX12_0 and up you need Nvidia 900/1000 series or AMD 400 series. While many "DX12" games don't require 12_0, that will change as time goes on, so no sense in getting something that doesn't support it

Nvidia 700/900/1000 and AMD 200/300/400 series supports dx12. Actually AMD get more performance increase from dx 12 in most games.

I suggest you to buy a new generation gpu (rx 480 or gtx 1060). 1060 is the faster card in dx11 games, but its a little more expensive in most countries.

Your psu is low quality. Better change with something atleast 80+ bronze certified.

Nvidia 900 series supports dx 12 API (12 API with Feature Level 12_1). Amd 200 and 300 series supports dx 12 fully. But still no point of getting previous generation card if you're buying brand new.
