Hi guys
planning to upgrade my graphics card and get an ssd
Currently using HD4870.
So wanna ask what the best card I can get for 1080p gaming on max settings?
My budget around 1k for both gfx card and the ssd . Planning to use the ssd for the OS.

Can't really remember what PSU I'm using already tongue.gif have to go back and check. My desktop already 5 years old blush.gif IIRC its a 600W Silverstone PSU. Should be ok right? Considering the new cards should need less energy compared to my aging 4870

just wondering what are the specs of your computer?

CPU? ram?

a 5 years old rig might bottleneck the card though

I5 (not sure exact model) and 4gb ram. Might be adding more ram if got extra budget. blush.gif
