Hello, I am due an upgrade from my R7 265. I have two cards in my sight right now, and it is the GTX 970 and the R9 390. What I have come to understand is that the R9 390 is more expensive than the 970, yet right now, there is a great deal on Amazon for an XFX R9 390, and was wondering if I...

So the cx430 could handle an x4 860k and a 960 do you think? Because I believe the 860k is not very efficient and is pretty power hungry. Then again, I'm a total noob at this xD

Wow! I feel real stupid now. Thank you sir!

Ah, the 960.i believe it doesn't have a VGA right? My monitor only has vga sadly. Which adapter should I buy?

I forgot to mention, my current pc has an r7 250. Would a 750ti do that much difference in performance?

1) which is the best graphics card I should upgrade to for 1080p gaming (my cx430 only has a single 8 pin pcie cable). 2) if the card does not have a VGA port, which adapter should I be looking at to buy. Thanks!

Thank you for all the help so far! I have just taken a look at the CPU usage inside of windows 7. It turns out that when I open chrome, the CPU jumps up to around 70% load. In fact, just when moving the cursor it goes to about 30%. Oh and btw, this PC is playing games also, but it handles it...

Well, I have an AMD x2 340, and a Western Digital Caviar Blue 250gb HDD. Which out of the two should be upgraded first, as this newly built (budget) pc is running sluggish.

I have come here to ask if your CPU massively affects Windows 7 performance. Also, is it worth upgrading a 7200rpm HDD to a 3GB/s SSD. This is because my motherboard only has support for SATA II. Thanks!

So i have just finished building my pc, it includes an AMD X2 340 processor, a Gigabyte f2a78m-ds2 motherboard, 1 stick of 4gb ram, an r7 250, and a western digital blue 250gb hard drive. (Yes i know it's not very pricey.) Now when i launch up, it goes to this weird Report about my hard drive...

Question: Will a power supply with a 420 watt output with 15 amps on the 12volt rail be enough to run a GTX 750Ti? Thanks for your time!

So, I want to see what the best 'gaming' computer for £100 or around $160 US. Feel free to go just a bit over the price.
