Question FX-8150 which GPU?

[heinflhs]

Hi, My current GPU is a Geforce 750 ti 2 Gb. I would like to upgrade the GPU to get more speed. What GPU would fit the FX-8150? I'm thinking of 4 Gb maybe? Thank's

If your gaming at 1080P I'd go with the RX 570 or RX 580.

Agree the rx570 are cheaper than the 1050ti here we actually have a special running at the moment with a rx580 8gb for cheaper than the 1050ti and rx570

Hi, I have been looking around and I stumbled across some other potential problems? I cannot find info about wether the CPU is fast enough for a better GPU.
Further the BIos is the latest. MSI will not distribute new Bios for this MB. Do you think that CPU and Bios are a problem for the upgrade or not?

Thank's

I ran a FX8350 with RX570 and it was fine although after upgrading platform to B450 and r2600 there was a bump in performance. You will definitely see improvement over your current card.

It depends on your psu does it have 6pin/8pin gpu connector?If not then you can't use the new gpu

Honestly I have no idea. Where do I have to look, do I need to take out the GPU?



edit:

I can't upload a jpeg.

But in the manual it says:


GroundATX 6-pin Power Connector: PWRCONN1
This connector is used to provide power to the graphics card.


So I assume it is a six pin connector.
