Graphics Card Suggestion

[GXT-347]

I have an AMD 6300 FX and 8g ram and wondering on where to go in terms of graphics card, trying to avoid bottlenecking as much as possible any suggestions

R9 270X.

and what size psu would you recommend for it i currently am running a 430W

 

[okcnaline]

Oh, 430W... Then never mind. Give me your budget and I'll see which PSU and GPU combo to pick.

You can fairly safely go up to a amd r9 280x or an nvidia gtx 770 at stocks speeds with non or minimal signs of any bottleneck.

I have bought a Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280X OC edition, it costs a little more than 270X but it is a supreme card. Blazing performance, amazing FPS, almost no noise - Go for it mate!

Nah... R9 285 is cheaper, and only very little behind, but it's cheaper and got a little bit of tricks. But then you'd need to overclock to decent clock speed.
