How will this graphic card with my current system :
Asus H81M-K
Intel® Core™ i3-4160, 3.60GHz, Haswell, 3MB
Kingston HyperX FURY Black 8GB (2x4GB), DDR3, 1600MHz
with a 400w source , which untill now worked perfectly.
My current graphic card is a GT 730 2 gb ddr 3....
So im wondering if a 400W power supply will be enough to hold this system :
Asus H81M-K
Intel® Core™ i3-4160, 3.60GHz, Haswell
Kingston HyperX FURY Black 8GB (2x4GB), DDR3, 1600MHz, CL10, 1.5V
Nvidia GT 730 2gb ddr3
1TB HDD WD
Yep , thought of that too.It was kinda obvious since the CPU is from....i dont even know , 2009 ? and the GPU is from 2014 ( even if its not high-end ).I need an upragade anyway , so i`ll go for the i3 and maybe in the future will get a better gpu too.
Thanks for your answers :)
i usually play wow and dota2.
In wow with fair-medium settings i get about 20-30 fps.Although i noticed that even if play on maximum or fair , the fps stay pretty much the same.if i have chrome + skype openede , it drops about 5 fps.
In dota 2 , kinda the same 20-30 fps.
I know , i plan to change the MB aswell and get more ram ( currently i have 4 gb ddr2 :/ ) and the power supply.
I also know that gt 730 is by no means a great performer but i assume there will be some major improvements on performance ( mainly gaming ) if i change the CPU and RAM.
So i have recently bought a GT 730 ( 2gb ddr3 - 128 bit ).My CPU is a old one , Athlon 64 x2 - 2.9 ghz.I assume it bottlenecks my GPU , because i really didnt see any fps improve.
Will a i3 processor be sufficient ?
