Best Graphics card for AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+

[jenci8888]

Hello, I'm new post this.

Which best Graphics card for AMD 64 X2 6400+?

My PC specs:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Motherborad: GA-M59SLI-S5
CPU: AMD 64 X2 6400+ 3.2ghz (I did overclocked 3.4ghz, but still stable)
CPU fan: Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO
RAM: DDR2 Kingston 800mhz, 8GB (2GB x 4 stick)
GPU: Gigabyte GT 430 OC edition
PSU: M-tech 600W (It's hungary brand, but crappy, dirty cheap, Using 1 years running no problems so far)

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but pretty much any decent video card is going to have the same performance since the CPU bottleneck will be so bad. I wouldn't go higher that a Nvidia GTX 740 or AMD R7 250x because it would'nt show any extra performance anyway, and it would just be wasted money. Even those two cards may be held back a tiny bit...

PS: The games that support AMD mantle may get a good boost though since it takes a lot of work away from the CPU and uses the video card instead. You would have to buy an AMD card to gain this benefit though.

I wouldn't get anything higher than an r7 250x or perhaps nvidia 650ti if you find it cheaper.

Thank you. I accident click "Best Solution" damn.
Anyway, Will bit or med bottleneck for GTX 660? I'm thinking to SLI setup.

I see an answer was already picked, but if you are looking for an in-between fix, getting an A10 would be good. They are cheaper than getting a new CPU and GPU at the same time and would be an overall upgrade, not to mention when you do want to add a GPU, the quad core A10 will still be able to perform well.

A10 6800k - Decent all around, cheaper.
A10 7850k - More powerful iGPU, more expensive, slightly better CPU.

I see....Isn't that for FM2? looks good cheaper, But I'm fan nvidia, sorry :/

Everyone expert GPU/CPU, thank you fast reply. I'l go for EVGA GT 740 4GB SC GDDR5
(Bit off topic for benchmark) And i checked videos benchmark for GT 740, Pretty awesome BF4 ultra setting, avg 33fps on 720p with FXAA (With lastest driver 337.88 WHQL)
Thank you, guys! Tomorrow I'l buy for EVGA GT 740 4GB SC GDDR5

nvidia... FAN?

Gosh so many fankids. As your wish, but dont cry when you will lag in all games.

 

[emdea22]

GT740 =)) the horror...

 

[jenci8888]

nvidia... FAN?

Um....Sorry about that, because......erm....I using had like GT 7600, GT 9600, GT 430 (Acutally It's first time PC Build for GT 7600 when i was 6yrs old, teached my dad how to build PC)
I never buy an AMD, I know feels.

I'm not kid anymore, I'm 6,0ft heigh. Acutally I am 15 years old and half-deaf, damn.
You noticed benchmark imporvents DX11 driver from nvidia?
Because has been overtaken chart "fps avg in BF4" with R9 290X and GTX 780.

GT740 =)) the horror...

Yeah. But Not bad. Let me checking compare before buy for GTX 740 vs GT 650 Ti.... (Checking benchmarks from videos)
(30 minutes later...) Looks better for GTX 650 Ti....I'd buy for GTX 650 Ti (before buy 5 hours until, If you want reply me.)

UPDATE: I ordered GTX 650 Ti.

 

[emdea22]

Way better choice.

Keep in mind that those benches were using far more powerful cpu's then what you have. You will not see anywhere near the same numbers because BF3/BF4 are highly CPU dependant. You are going to want a new cpu+mobo+ram pretty bad after you see your performance compared to those benches. You will need to run a very low resolution and in game settings to have playable performance in the multiplayer. Once again I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

Sorry for late reply. I understand the PC parts with performance.
I forgot to say, and I using Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster EX2220 21,5" 1920x1080.
Good enough to run 1080p games.

I will plan for secondary PC gaming, but keep my old PC gaming for using my Dad and mom.
(I find some research PC parts/compoments, I'l add whitelist PC parts:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, CPU /w fan: AMD FX-6350 3.9ghz w/ Coolermaster hyper 212 EVO, RAM: Kingston Hyper black 16GB 1600mhz, Case: Coolermaster Elite 431 Plus, PSU: Coolermaster V750 750W, GPU: GTX 860, Monitor: ASUS VX239H
But The GTX 860 Will be poweful than GTX 760, And I keep 6-core CPU. I don't think so, Will be all cost Around 1350$ Also Still collecting for saving money around 1-2 years to buy)
