[PIET POMPIES]

Hi guys I'm running a i5 4460 with only 4gb of ram in my pc will there be a diffrence if I add another 4gb ram while playing games on my intel hd 4600 ? Will I get better fps or just system performance ? Thanks

I'm sure it will be better system performance that is if your doing heavy CAD tasks or video editing. For better FPS, im sorry but your gonna have to spend money. Low budget - R9 285 || Higher Budget R9 280X, 290(Some are near the R9 280x's price) or a 970.

But since you have a i5 which will do well with games, you can get the R9 285, will do well for 1080p resolution, here is a nice price I have seen: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/2gb-msi-radeon-r9-285-gaming-2g-28nm-5500mhz-gddr5-gpu-918mhz-boost-973mhz-1792-streams-dp-dvi-hdmi

8GB (preferably a 2x4GB set) should increase performance some yes. 8GB is the basic entry level for DRAM (and has been for awhile).

Just to say, that 8GB input will help a little, but getting a low budget GPU will do ya better justice. The R9 285 is a mid range card in par with GTX 960. The price for it is very reasonable compared to the GTX 960, will provide better performance with your i5 card.
