Hi guys,

I have some plan for upgrade my current gc which is Sapphire Radeon HD 6670 1GB DDR3 (been using since 2012).
I'm looking budget around RM400.

Any recommendation for that price?
Btw, my PC spec below :

A4-5300 3.4GHz
RAM 6GB DDR3
PSU Gigabyte Hercules 580 (real 500watt)

Sell your car and grab pCars + SimXperience Stage 5 ($22,500)

Use the extra money to buy Assetto Corsa and subscribe to iRacing for a 'true' simracing experience.
That proc need an upgrade too imo. =\
Are you looking for a new or used card? I'm not sure how bad that proc will bottleneck a 270 in some games.

The game I'd played mostly nowday AC sim racing game.
But graphics part lacking the most.

So i plan for upgrade on gc, then later on proc if needed.
Looking both used & new.

Seems like used not much choice as all are nvidia...I'm more towards with ati cards.

They're cheap & serve me well.

after overnight thinking & consideration...
this afternoon went to digital mall C-Zone sought A10 7850k for RM610..
i must say improved a lot my gaming graphics even using HD6670 1GB hybrid crossfire with R7 onboard rclxms.gif rclxms.gif biggrin.gif

Hi all sifu,

I have some question about graphic setup to pursuit further.
I'd have A10 7850k proc, currently using onboard R7 gpu.

Would it better if I'm getting :

1) Sapphire R7 250x 2G-D5 crossfire with R7 onboard?
OR
2) PowerColor R9 270 2G-D5 discrete gpu setup?

R9 270 alone performs WAY better than 7850K IGPU + 250X.

Oh, btw, you can only crossfire 250X DDR3 variant (not GDDR5, it will works, but gddr5 bandwidth will be limited to your system ram bandwidth).

Thanks for your expert input! rclxms.gif thumbup.gif
Gotta reconsider my plan for R9 270.... sweat.gif
