GPU Upgrade Time!

[GideonNav]

Hi guys,

I think its time for a graphics card update, as I literally cannot play Fallout 4 regardless of settings. It lags, jumps and virtually freezes.

I need some help with choosing a new GPU and presumably a new PSU as it probably isn't powerful enough anymore. I have a budget of around £200, any help is appreciated!

THANK YOU!!!

Here are my current specs:
GPU - AMD Radeon HD 7700
CPU - Intel Core i5-3470 @3.20ghz
Motherboard - MSI H61m-p31/w8
RAM - 8GB Vengeance X DDR3
PSU - XFX 450W Gold

Since Fallout 4 runs much better on Nvidia I'd recommend a GTX 960: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-02gp42966kr

Thanks for your reply - would I need a new PSU?

Nope, it's a very efficient card and will run fine with 450w.
