GA-F2A55M-HD2 (rev. 3.0) A8 - 6600K good for gaming?

[Dzintars1]

I have a GA-F2A55M-HD2 (rev. 3.0) A8 - 6600K motherboard. I was wondering which graphics card would work best with the motherboard and the integrated graphics card. The website said that the Radeon HD 6670 would work best but is there a better one graphics card that would work well? Also is the motherboard good for gaming? Upgrading for GTA V as its soon out, woo!

Thanks,

The GA-F2A55M-HD2 will happily support any Graphics Card currently on the market, as long as your PSU can provide sufficient power for the Card.

Depending on your budget a range of cards could be recommended. For Grand Theft Auto 5 I'd recommend at least a GeForce 750 Ti or equivalent AMD Card ( R9 280 ). The better the card the better your odds of running GTA 5 which, if it's anything like GTA 4 will be very badly optimised for PC hardware.

Your Motherboard will stand you well for gaming. It doesn't include SLI / CrossFire (technology to allow two or more Graphics Cards to be run side-by-side) but that is rarely used and debatable as to its cost-effectiveness for all but the richest super users.

Your Motherboard is future proofed for Graphics Cards and AMD's current CPU lineup so you should do well for at least two years, hopefully more, with that board.
