Graphics card and mobo for fx 6300

[zorro bravo]

What mobo and gpu should I get for my fx 6300? I have basically a $200-250 budget for these 2 parts. I'm trying to mostly run BF4 1080p and all that business. An overall budget of $600-700 for the whole PC including monitor and OS. THanks for all your help.

how good would the 960 and that mobo do in bf4 in terms of fps? should I consider an r9 380? and yes the 970 is much too expensive for me atm.

 

[djreedj]

I cant tell you exactly how much fps you will get because ive never used it myself but..

other videos show about the same fps and your cpu looks pretty legit so i would think you would be satisfied for now

would also be a nice choice, i like that that one has 2 extra gb of ram

ok thanks. no r9 380 then? and I was thinking of getting the 4gb version instead of the 2gb. So I'm down to either the 960 4 gb or r9 380 4gb. Which is best?

Update: sorry your last post didn't load. so the r9 380 4gb it is then?

Its up to you, i think the 380 is a bit better performance wise

thats with the 960, so if you wanted to swap out for the 380 you could do that..also its including monitor and os so like i said its just for reference

ok I think I'll get the 380 then. and for the links you have to copy the little link the website gives you, not the web adress. just an fyi.

yep now i got it. Except I'm getting the 380 and don't need two monitors (yet). and i should get the cooler to OC the cpu? Do i need a cd drive too ?

 

[djreedj]

you only need one to install windows from your disc unless you plan on buying a key and downloading the ISO file onto a usb drive. that cooler is nice for gaming whether you overclock or not its nice and cheap and very nice. and did i put 2 monitors on the list? sorry didnt realize that means cheaper for you

ok i'd rather just using a disk then. and a 15-20 $ disk drive will do then?

 

[djreedj]
