HELP in correct GPU for Intel i3 7100

[Kevin_274]

Hi, first of all, I know this 7100 is a litle bit more powerfull compared to the 6100 but looking for benchmarks in Youtube I realized that there's just a few benchmarks that don't give me answer 🙁

Well, I want a budget pc to run gta 5 and racing games of 2012 and OLDER (I'm not interested in another kind of games), for gta 5 almost everything at ultra 1080p >>>30FPS<<< with no frames drops at multiple explotions at ultra grass zones and i'm looking for a i3 because I WON'T play games from 2013 and up in PC.

So, I have money for a GTX 1050Ti, RX 470/480, and a GTX 1060 3gb

I wan't the less bottleneck as possible, and of course, I'm open to other recomendations in case the combos I mentioned don't satisfy what I want

what you want is not going to be possible

you WILL get drops with those settings on anything less that beast specs



drop grass to medium and turn off most advanced graphics options at 1080p, ultra ~60 fps should be easily attainable with a 480/7100

Out of those I would recommend rx480 4gb - it's pretty much on par with gtx 1060 6gb. Do you have enough for the 6gb variant of the 1060? 3gb is not really enough for modern gaming and it's slower than the 6gb variant for some reason.

If you can go with the 1060 6gb but rx 180 is also an amazing card. It's just personal preference

Oh, ok, so I suposse I was wrong thinking capping fps to 30 would give more details, well, thank you, at least I can run it at decent settings. I hope Rockstar make a Scorpio full detailed version of this game...

Thank you, but the 6gb is way too expensive for me, I'm going with the RX 480

Yeah, I'd recommend getting the RX480 4gb, or if you need to cut down on cash, get a 470, it's just a tad slower than the 480. With GTA, that's generally a CPU intensive game and a couple more cores might be helpful, so I'd suggest saving up some money and getting an i5 or going AMD. If you're not willing to do either though, an i3 should be sufficient but you might want to turn down settings a bit if you're looking for high FPS. For 30FPS though, you probably wont need to turn down any settings, really

Your answer is the best, thank you. I prefer very high settings over fps (this could be a budget sentence...)
