Title kind of says it all, whats the best gpu to upgrade from an r9 270x to get high performance at 1080p in games like battlefront, fallout 4, and gta 5? Budget of 150-300 us dollars

Im looking at all these benchmarks were people are getting 60+ fps on the r9 270x on ultra/high in star wars battlefront, and i have an r9 270 overclocked to 1000 mhz base and 1400 memory clock, and im getting 40 fps on low. The game is not enjoyable to play at all. Whats wrong? Would an R9 280x...

Ive got an r9 270x running at stock and I would like to know how its going to perform in titles like battlefront, fallout 4, shadows of mordor? I want to run them at high presets at 1680x1050p and get above 50 fps most of the time, is that realistic? Would an R9 280x be a good upgrade?

I keep seeing that the XFX double dissipation 280x needs at least a 700 watt power supply, but when I put my pc into pc part picker (FX-6300, 8 gigs of ram, Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Micro ATX AM3+ Motherboard) along with the 280x, it says that the overall power consumption is 430w. Its a really nice...

my AMD AVC cooler fan that I had has started to wear out, getting significantly louder and having a loud whine. It got on my nerves so I pulled it out and put a crappy stock heatsink in there for now. I took the fan off of the actual heatsink, because the heatsink itself is still in really good...

A fin just broke off of my graphics cards fan and now when the fan speeds get above 35 percent it starts making a horrifying noise. I have a sapphire R9 270 dual x. Its way past any return dates. please help

My current system is running an fx-6300 with an OC'd r9 270. It can run any game I throw at it like GTA V, Shadows of Mordor, Fifa 16, and metro last light at medium to high settings and get around 60fps, but that is in part due to the fact that im running a 1050p screen. Id like to get a bigger...

I recently decided to buy GTA 5, but it was still listed at 60 dollars on steam. So i decided to buy the digital download off of amazon. After waiting 24 HOURS for it to download, im looking at gta 5 on all low settings at 1050p getting 40 fps. I have v-sync on because without it it gets 70 fps...

I used the hard drive from my old pc in my new build, but its still a 7200 RPM hard drive. The issue is that when I boot into windows, it takes around 10 minutes of sitting idle to open anything. What could this be? PC specs: AMD FX6300 Sapphire Radeon R9 270 (OC) 8 gigs of ram Maxtor hard drive

When I put my computer to sleep, the screen goes to power save mode and the fans all turn off as expected, and the power button on my case starts flashing. Lets say I leave it for a couple hours to do other things, when I come back and press the space button, nothing happens. The power button...

I have had this problem for a while, and I cannot figure this out. This is going to be a lengthy post. Ok, So my old computer had a core 2 quad q6600, three gigs of ram, and a peice of crap motherboard. I decided to see if I could breathe some new life into it and add an R9 270. I installed a...

How will an FX-6300 perform in relatively recent games paired with an R9 270x? I would appreciate slightly more specific answers than "Decent"
