Can I max out every game with the 480?

[Mike3k24]

Hello everyone. Today I want to ask if I will be able to max out most games for the next couple years with an i5 6500 and the new RX 480 (when it comes out obviously). I will also be recording games like CSGO and Call of duty and rocket league and also minecraft. I already have an SSD with a copy of Windows 10. And there's a keyboard and mouse combo I'm planning to buy. And I'll worry about a monitor later. This is my full build if necessary:

You might want a mobo with PCIE 3.0 helps with the RX 480 memory bandwidth.
Otherwise yes you probably can.

Any suggestions? And do I necessarily need it?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Change the PSU to a GS or G2 , the NEX is not a good choice.

PCI Express 3.0 x16
Your board is PCIE 3.0 , no need to change

Thanks. But I heard that corsair doesn't make good quality PSU's? Might have mistaken it for antec but I'm not too sure. Thanks anyway!

 

[bishopi5]

corsair make great PSU's, they have a low end cheap range that people like to buy and they aren't great

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

The RMX series is one of the best , you are correct , their lower end PSU's are horrible.

I own the RMX 850 , the series is first rate quality.

Oh okay. I'm a little confused you said they make great PSU's but then you said they aren't great?

They don't make PSUs - they pay other companies to make them, as do almost all retails like EVGA and such. Corsair has different models of PSUs. The RMx are fantastic quality units made by Channel Well Technology.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

They \ Corsair have good and bad series just like all manufactures \ suppliers:

Stay away from low end like VS , CX etc.

Very good lineups like : RMx , RMi , AX , AXi , HX , HXi .

Okay that makes a little more sense now.

How can anyone possibly answer this when:

A) The 480 hasn't been released yet, and

B) You don't even know what monitor you're going to get?!? 1080P? 1440p? 4K?

Seriously dumb question. Can't believe I wasted my time responding, but you earned it.

1. It's just speculation
2. I said don't worry about the monitor cause I already have one. And I'm not gonna lie but you are really making yourself sound like a dickhead. It's pretty obvious we all know the 480 HASNT been released so like I said just speculation. Try to let off some steam first before coming on here taking if out on others.

 

[jtk2515]

their are 3 different 480's. The base model I would say no to 1440p.

Yeah I plan on sticking with 1080p for awhile because that's what my setup is like.
