Right my rig is over 7 years old now. Most games i need to turn settings to low or medium to get my 60FPS now. looking for some quick wins to improve my rig.


Most demanding games I'm playing are Killing Floor 2 , Resident evil 7 and i'm wanting to play Ghost Recons wildandlas when i see it on sale.

current specs:
core i5 2500k
amd radeon 6950 2GB
corsair 4 X 2GB DDR3
1TB Samsumg harddrive
ASRock z68 motherboard

Thiking of getting another 6950 to crossfire and maybe an SSD. Are these good ideas? Give some suggestions guys.

Just install Gentoo you fucking retard
>>
>>59386450
The GTX 1060 is pretty good value and will be enough for Resident Evil 7 and Ghost Recon WIldlands

SSD is probably a good idea too
>>
>>59386450
GTX 1060/RX 480 graphics card.

SSD

These are your good upgrades. You can also OC.

Why not buy a current gen card that will by itself crush your dual 6950? Also yes do get an SSD.

>>59386571

>>
>>59386557
>>59386571

>I dont really want to spend more than £200
Well

I guess you could either get a RX 480 and no SSD or a RX 470/1050 Ti plus a small SSD for Windows and one or two small games
>>

What can expect from a RX 480 ?

will I be able to play the games mentioned above on high settings and still see 60fps?
>>
>>59386702
yes
>>
>>59386702
RX 480 and 1060 6 GB are this generation's 1080p cards, yes.
>>
>>59386767
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
>>
>>59386838
If you wait about two months they're gonna drop prices once Vega drops. The 480 itself is gonna get a rebrand with higher clocks and serve as the low-midrange
>>
what resoluton do you play at ?

>Thiking of getting another 6950 to crossfire
Multi GPU solutions are meh.
You will be better off getting a 1060 or something like that.
>>
Get a 2nd hand GTX 770 or HD7970

Both should be cheap and a cheap ssd
