Hi all,

I've looked at old threads similar to my question, but wanted some updated bespoke advice.

As all are probably aware the next gen of consoles are nearly on us and the current gen will become obsolete. I've relied on my 360 for my gaming as I've not had the money to spend on a fancy PC (plus I like sitting on a couch!).

However, as I won't be able to afford a Xbone or PS4 anytime soon, I'm wondering about upgrading my mediocre PC to get a gaming experience beyond what I can get from my 360.

I've currently got:

Dell Optiplex 780 SFF (I know...)
Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3Ghz
Radeon HD 4550
4GB DDR3 RAM

I'm limited by the sff and 235 psu, and don't want to spend much, but have been looking at either the HD 6570 or the HD 6670 which can both be gotten for about £40-£50. There is also the HD 7750, but that is a fair bit more expensive.

Will either the HD 6570 or HD 6670 offer much better graphics than an Xbox 360 on my current rig? I know the gpus are more powerful than the 360, but games are heavily optimized for the consoles and so the perform far beyond what they should for their specs.

What do you reckon, will these be noticeably better than 360 / PS4?

Thanks for your advice?
