i5 4460 graphic card update

boogiegecko · Jan 12, 2017

Cpu- Intel i5 4460 3,2 GHz
Cpu Cooler- Cooler Master Seidon 120V
Gpu- Gigabyte AMD Radeon R9 270X 2GB DDR5
Ram- Kingston 2x4 = 8 GB 1600 MHz
Motherboard-ASRock B85 PRO4
HDD- WDB 1GB
SSD- KINGSTONE 120 GB
Power Suplly- Naxen 500 W
Case- ZALMAN ZR1

So guys this is my pc I build over 2, 2 and a half years ago. So ill change my case and add 8 more gigs of ram but other then that the only thing I'm thinking of buying i a Gpu and a Psu. So I'm actualy stuck on what Gpu i should get I have enough in my budget to buy an AMD 480 in witch case im thing about buying the XFX 480 8 Gig model but I wanna see what my option from team green are. I'll be honest I had one Nvidia Gpu my whole life so I don't know how their driver updates are and is their support any good. I think I have enough money to buy the 1070 but im not shure yet. In any case if you guys could give me some feed back or ideas it would really help out a lot. I heard my 4460 should not cause any problems for these Gpus.

Edit:
I forgot to add i have a budget of 845,36 dollars that need to be spread out on a new case PSU 8 more gigs of ram and a GPU

Heyo boogiegecko

The RX480 counterpart from nvidia would be the 1060
The 4460 will not bottleneck either the 480, 1060 or 1070.
You could go for any of the cards, neither should get bottlenecked by your 4460

I'd probably go for the 1060/1070, only because I'm a slightly nvidia fanboy.
If you decide to go for the 1060, you might aswell go for the 480 if it's cheaper, since they're going neck on neck with each other.

Also... If you decide to go for the 1070, you should probably get a better PSU. For example, something like the evga supernova g3 550w.

Good luck deciding!

^^ All well said. I would like to add that 1070 is not really required if you play at 1080p resolution - for that resolution, GTX 1060 is plenty.

rx 480 = gtx 1060 6gb

a 1070 is too much, you would need an i7 to properly use that

GTX 1070 is a 1440p card and i5-4460 is too weak for 1070.
