[SOLVED] Best GPU for this system

[badkid345]

Hi guys,

I am looking for a [strike]VGA[/strike] GPU to go with my current system. I don't mind buying used one. Mostly, I play PES & FIFA. I need one that won't be bottlenecked and has the best p/p.

- Cooler Master Thunder 450W
- Pentium G3450 3.4 Ghz
- Main H81 Asrock-DGS R2.0
- RAM 1 x 8GB Gskill
- HDD 500GB WD
- SSD 240GB KLEVV
- DVD-RW
- Viewsonic 27" smhd

Thank you so much!

Well pretty much any GPU I can recommend is going to be bottlenecked somewhat by that CPU. However something like GTX 750 TI should give you a solid performance bump in those games versus no dedicated GPU, even if it is bottlenecked a bit. The GT 1030 GDDR5 version is also an option if you cant find a 750 ti for a decent price.

You'll have a bottleneck. It is what it is. But it doesn't hurt to have a good graphics card (talking in moderation, not a gtx1080 here).

1050ti will give you best money spent scenario as per performance before it becomes a money waste (because even though it'll bottleneck, you'll still get nicer graphics). Although the choice is limited by your power supply. Other than that, a gt1030 will be on an equivalent performance as your Pentium (as mentioned above).

At this point. There are plenty of cheap CPU on eBay and local classifieds for your motherboard. Even an i5 will be a big upgrade for you, and it won't cost too much. Have a look.

You can plug an i7-4790K, on that mother, for 150$, and forget bout the bottleneck
