Hi guys, currently running

Asus maximus iv gene-z/gen 3 rog motherboard
corsair vengeance 8gb 1600mhz (2x4gb)
60gb ssd
360gb hdd
500gb hdd
ocz modxtreme 600w 80+ bronze psu (might up grade to corsair hx850w)
xfx radeon hd 5770
windows 7 ultimate (64bit)

i want to upgrade my graphics card and psu so i can run bf3 and crysis 3 on ultra, thought u guys kno alot more about this than i do so any advice will be appreciated. My budget is about £200 - 250 for gpu and psu roughly, would stretch to 300 but would prefer to keep cost down

thanks paul

I'd recommend getting the Asus AMD Radeon HD 7950 DirectCU II http://amzn.to/1gi7t5u which is a great GPU that can run both of those games on ultra settings (not including MSAA) with good FPS and also in your budget. I've had a 7950 and it runs great in those games.

You're in luck, overclockers.co.uk has a sale with a Radeon HD 7970 going for £227.99 inc VAT. From what I've seen, that is an absolute BARGAIN and the best you're going to get in that price range:

The sale is just for this week. I'd snap it up if I were you.

Will the 7950 work ok with my currwnt psu or will I run into any problems?
