Hi all,
Graphics: R9-280x
CPU: i5 4690k
Monitor: BenQ XL2730 27-inch 144 Hz (don't think it has freesync?)
RAM: 16GB
Budget: £250~
I run my desktop at 1440p 144hz but I game in 1080p or lower resolutions.
I am not a hardcore gamer, very casual actually - mostly playing playerunknown battlegrounds (the main reason I want to upgrade my card).
Apart from that I do a lot of multimedia stuff, programming, web browsing, etc and run a dual monitor setup with a benq 24".
I don't plan to play many games in 1440p so I was thinking that a 1060 or 580 would suffice.
Can anyone recommend a good choice of card?
The MSI RX 580 8GB GAMING X is around £270 on amazon.
The MSI 1060 GAMING X is around £300.
But I don't want to really spend more than £200-250.
Are any other cards viable? I would love a 1070 but it's just slightly out of my price bracket at £350-400.
Would love to hear any suggestions, thanks!
