Yep, the GTX 280 must be a beast. Haha.

Here is an update just to let you know how things went. CS:GO went from 150 fps normally to 500 fps. With streaming went from 60 fps to 260 fps. That was with 6% CPU over clock. Taking the overclock off (although the overclock was harmless, i checked it with out the small over clock, it...

Two options really: Don't get a R7 360, but a more powerful older model GPU, second hand even, newer isn't necessarily better, depends what you want to use it for. Or the other option is upgrade the PC first, I would go for a new mobo/CPU upgrade, and the OPs ram probably isn't DDR3 if he is...

Thank for you honest and good help. I did start another thread, looking at other options, and I've decided to upgrade CPU/MOBO/RAM and then later in the year upgrade the graphics card. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2936734/upgrade-rebuild.html Many thanks.

Thanks mate, really appreciate the help. Don't forget to change the oil on your engine, easiest way to protect it. ;) Also my other tip is, change the engine timing belt on hours, don't wait for it to snap and ruin your engine. Worth the $20 belt, plus labour, rather then the $1000s of a...

For the sake of the difference in them, and just save me travelling to another shop I think I'm going to go; Asus H97M-E https://www.pcfactory.cl/producto/17218-MB.Intel.H97M-E.1150 i5-4460 https://www.pcfactory.cl/producto/17076-CPU.Core.i5-4460.3.2.GHz.1150 G.Skill® DDR3 4GB 1600Mhz...

Ah yeah sorry you said 1866 with XMP. But if I use 1866 on 1600 native, which it effectively Overclock the CPU and I will need a custom heat sink? How about this. Kingston® DDR3 16GB (2x 8GB) 1866Mhz PC3-14900 Fury Red...

Ok now I just need to decide which motherboard. M/B Intel H97M-E A/L/V (1150) https://www.pcfactory.cl/producto/17218-MB.Intel.H97M-E.1150 or MSI H97M-G43 LGA1150 http://www.ttchile.cl/producto.php?i=14163 Not sure if there is much between them. CPU i5-4460...

They have on this website, although I dont know this shop at all. Dodgy website. http://www.sistemax.cl/webstore/index.php?op=producto/id=16771 They have here also. http://www.sym.cl/ficha/121/ It only looks like 0.1Ghz more 4460. Or am I being silly. This website exsists also but is...

MSI H97M-G43 LGA1150/ Intel H97/ DDR3/ CrossFireX/ SATA3&USB3.0/ A&GbE/ MicroATX http://www.ttchile.cl/producto.php?i=14163 Intel Core i5-4590 Haswell 3.3GHz LGA 1150 84W Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4600 http://www.ttchile.cl/producto.php?i=14189 Just realised it is not in stock. Ugh...

The only 1333 RAM they have is corsair, good but pricey. If I get higher speed RAM, will it just bottleneck on the mobo, but still work? https://www.pcfactory.cl/producto/11109-DDR3.16GB.2x.8GB.1333MHz.PC3-10600 This is a lot cheaper. But comes individual...

The RAM speed is capped at 1333, this does not effect performance much in gaming though right? Car problems. Go for it. :)
