alvarofst · Jul 4, 2017

Hi, i want to Buy one of these GPUs GTX1070 OR RX580, but both are pci-e 3.0 and my Mother Board is a DP67BA with pci-e 2.0 x16.
Can i buy any of those GPUs and play games like GTA V or The Witcher 3 in my PC??

Thanks.

as long as your psu can handle it yes.

its front and backwards compatible (2.0 and 3.0)

my PSU is mustiff 850w

superninja12 · Jul 4, 2017

sounds like walmart needed some extra money.
There isnt any information at all about that unit.

I recommand you to replace you the powersupply with a stable one.

Or which do you recomend?

superninja12 · Jul 4, 2017

ok that thing will break your gpu for sure.

I recommand you an seasonis 12ii 520w.

alvarofst · Jul 4, 2017

520w will be enough?

superninja12 · Jul 4, 2017

yeah man, evga 550w g3 if you can afford it.

its about the build quality /voltage stability.

you would never surpass 420w in your worst dreams.

In other site they said if i buy the GTX 1070 i will suffer with drop of FPS, stuttering, tearing, etc.

What it means?

Glad to see you're upgrading the power supply. Talk about brazen lies on that junk one - they don't even bother faking a rail distribution that could even theoretically hit 850W. The parts could be amazing (ha!) but that would still only leave it a 450W one. Good ol' Codegen, too lazy to even lie properly.
