Hello,
I think my graphics card might be out of commission =\. Playing Mass Effect 3, there is a distinct decline is graphics quality, particularly on the armours, kinda looking like someone blurred everything.
My question is can I get away with simply swapping in a new graphics card? I only want a quick upgrade so i was eyeing the 7850 or 7870.
This is my current build:
CPU: AMD 550BE [unlocked to 4 cores]
MOB: MA770T-UD3
CPU Cooler: Coolermaster Universal Hyper TX3
RAM: 4GB DDR3 Kingston
GPU: ATI Radeon 5770 [powercolor]
HDD: 1TB samsung f3 7200rpm
DVD: Liteon DVD
PSU: Vantec Ion2+ 600W
Case: NZXT Apollo Case Black
If i cant get away with a quick gpu swap out, i might look at overhauling it. But i intend to build a complete new rig in about a year and delegate this one to hooking up to a tv as a family computer.
Also, will this Motherboard be capable of supporting an SSD?
So opinions? GPU swapout?
