How can i make my PC a more powerful gaming PC?

To answer all your questions, a 300W PSU is enough to run your system, the 1Gb GDDR5 is immensely superior and dual graphics only works with HD 6xxx series, not 7xxx, so no. hope this helps

i have the exact same computer but you are saying that 300w is enough there

ok so to just clarify, i can run the 7750 even at full load, but i should disable the 7660D. Are you completely sure that my computer wont get ruined? Im going remove 1 2gb ram card from my computer and that leaves me with 2x4gb cards.. (how much wattage will that save, just a question).

I said 300W was enough there as well

Yes, disable the iGPU. There's no need to remove any ram from your computer, it should be really fine! That said, I'd get a new PSU anyways in the future. Not because of wattage, but because of the terrible quality in OEM PCs. Your PC will use well less then 300W. I wouldn't worry about it.

alright, well i have some more stupid questions.... How would i go about disabling the iGPU(i think that means integrated gpu) and what would happen if i left that on aswell as the 7750?, and i would like to remove the 2gb ram so my mobo can run dual channel. And just how effective is the radeon 7750, i get around 30 fps on medium-low settings bf3 at 1280x720, how much more performance should i be expecting? i am also looking forward to the new call of duty game i could run the older ones at med-high settings 50 fps.

The 7750 would automatically be the favored GPU, I don't think you'd have to do anything. Dual channel Ram is not very important when not using the iGPU, but it will perform a bit better if you don't use 10gb, which you probably don't. As for the 7750, you should get 60FPS on medium on BF3 with that resolution. The old COD games should run on high then I guess. What I'm trying to say is that its quite a significant upgrade.

alright man thanks, i will remove the 2gb ram, i want to get as best performance as possible, and i will proceed to buy the radeon 7750

Don't be, I'm just glad I could help

yes i know it is integrated. You can crossfire with the internal gpu

Internal GPU? What do you mean? You can't buy integrated GPUs, they come on CPUs.

 

[Exoticheals]

AMD A-10 5700 APU has a 7660 built in.

If you buy another 7660 you can crossfire them

you cant buy 7660's they come with a-10s

Exactly.

Crossfire it with a 6770, Sorr I didn't mean to type the 7660 lol

IMPORTANT!! The AMD Dual Graphics Solutions do not work as advertized, the single card infact runs better than the Dual graphics solution. Hence I would not recommend to go for the Dual Graphics at all. Better buy a better card instead. The dual graphics does not help with the performance. It mostly just increases the amount of skipped frames which will make gaming worse

It is also not recommended by the TomsHardware team even. Look for the review at http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/dual-graphics-crossfire-benchmark,3583.html

I hope this helps.

7770 at least

Well.. you should also consider the power requirements.

i have a nooby question here..

is a 2gb ddr3 7750 better than a 1gb gddr5 7750? or vice versa.

DDR3 will result in worse performance because it is slower RAM.

I have not seen any benchmarks comparing the HD 7750 DDR3 vs. HD 7750 DDR5. But the Radeon HD 6670 DDR3 only has about 76% the performance of the Radeon HD 6670 DDR5.
