My system only has a 430w power supply and I don't want to fork out an extra £40-£50 for a new PSU, so the 960 seemed like best the best performance/price.

I'm upgrading to a new GPU soon and decided on the nVidea GTX 960. Only now I've noticed a 2GB and 4GB option. Which should I get? I already have 8GB of RAM in my system, will I need the extra 2GB. GTA V is the latest game I'm playing and only at 1080p. Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks

Running hyper212 at stock speeds, don't have a good enough mobo to do over locking.

FX 6300 2 x 4gb hyperx 430w bronze corsair

Hi, So I'm looking into upgrading my GPU. I currently have an MSI Gaming 750ti. I've been looking at the 960, due to my power supply restrictions this is as powerful as I think it can go for me. Does anyone have any suggestions to get more power at a similar price point? Any help would be...

Oh okay, may as well just save myself £20 and stick to that then.

Awesome didn't think to check Gigabyte! Thanks now i can run the 8320 with a 660 instead of a 6300! :D

Hey guys, i was over at tek syndicate and i posted a build. I was hoping to use an fx 8320 with this motherboard. GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 Motherboard Phenom II AMD Athlon II Socket AM3 AMD 760G Micro ATX RAID Gigabit Ethernet (rev. 4.1) - Gigabyte One person told me this isn't compatible. Could...

Had to change the CPU and Mobo. The rams voltage was to high for haswell. this is a revised build. I will upgrade the psu but ive purchased it already so will give it ago. The power consumption still doesn't go near 430W as it stands and if im right corsairs PSU are quite efficient...

What do you think? Most of it is purchased just need the finishing touch. Will the mobo, cpu and gpu suffice for a good gaming rig? PCPartPicker part list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/34cmm Price breakdown by merchant: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/34cmm/by_merchant/ Benchmarks...

Thanks for your help sadams!! :)

I've changed the build now. But is the i5-3570k going overkill for the build? because i would like to shave some pounds off the price. PCPartPicker part list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/1fQRW Price breakdown by merchant: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/1fQRW/by_merchant/ Benchmarks...

I'm now reconsidering the phenom x4 and the 660ti not really sure I want to oc the CPU to be able to better the GPU.

This is my final build. If anyone thinks its in balanced or has any flaws please point them out. Could I upgrade this in the future, I'm not massively keen on the mobo but it will do for now. I'm hoping to be able to play most new games in high detail. (Games like day z, wow, cod) PCPartPicker...
