    Need An Upgrade from Saphire 7870 (piece of trash)

    Good replacements for your GPU would be: Radeon R9 270x, GeForce 660,650ti,760. Google them for more information. But in my opinion they are a good choice at the moment.

    How long does my 7770 have left to live...?

    Check your connector cables. Update your drivers. Clean it if you can. If it doesn't help... well then you are in bad luck. But honestly GPU's are not so quick to die. I mean i have my GPU for around 5 years now, still works like a charm.

    r7 260x r9 270x r9 280x which one worth it

    Depends on the resolution you are going to play games at. If you are playing on 1080p then go with the 270x or 280x. But if you have 900p or less then the 260x alright. As for the CPU it doesn't really matter for 260x and 270x. They are mid-high end cards and they won't be bottlenecked, as for...

    Need An Upgrade from Saphire 7870 (piece of trash)

    I had a problem with my AMD card too. Every time i would try to update my display drivers i would get a blue screen. Later i discovered that it was caused by my outdated Windows. Pretty much what i'm saying is, update your Windows 7 to the latest updates, and then try installing the new drivers...

    Is my CPU bottlenecking?

    Nah. You are good. That is a 4 core processor with 8 threads 3.4GHz. I don't see how that could bottleneck your GPU. And by the way. Assassins Creed 4 is an EXTREMELY POWERFUL game so its not a big surprise you are seeing framerate drops. Anyway your CPU is fine. Bottlenecks mostly occur if you...

    Does SSD reduce online lag?

    I have already searched the net for the answers. And no answers were given :( Mostly people ask if SSD will reduce loading times, or stutter, etc. But my question is of quite a different nature: Does upgrading to an SSD reduce online lag, or latency or ping or however the hell its called? I...

    Can i upgrade a newer GPU to this outdated PC?

    Wait what if you upgrade PSU+GPU and then later trasfer it to the new PC. Is that smart? Or should i simply be patient and wait 2 more months?
