Hi, Guys.. Pure for gaming (very little on work, mostly excel).. I am looking at the spec below and trying to do with min budget as i can ... plan to get it end of the year..
i3 4160
Ram 8GB
GPU - R9 380 or GTX 640 (Any recommendation ? if I would like to keep my PSU and is it advisable ?)
**Aim to play latest game with high setting at 1080... and target to upgrade the CPU before 1150 phase out end of 2016 .. if with this senario, should I go with G3258?
My current rig:-
Intel E6750
Asus P5G41c-M LX
Kingston DDR3 4GB
WD 1TB Black
Palit GT 630
Enermax Tomahawk 500

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Oct 29 2015, 07:15 AM) Don't downgrade the i3 to G3258, i3 isn't really sufficient for latest game with high settings nowadays, downgrading to a dual core (w/o HT) G3258 will take you even further away from your personal requirements. There isn't a GTX640 so I think it is a typo and you are comparing R9 380 to GTX960, perhaps? R9 380 is recommended to run on a better PSU as it draws more power than standard GTX960, if you are going to change PSU to a more decent one, then R9 380 with more VRAM will be a much better choice and future proof. Sorry yes .. typo .. May I know how much will these cost me in total ? with the motherboard included. As in term of PSU, any recommendation if I am going for R9 380 and how much ? Excluding casing, hdd, dvd rom and monitor .. Thanks |
