How much if a performance increase might I see?

[escanthon]

I just ordered an r9 380x and EVGA 600w b1 (I think) PSU to replace my gtx 750ti and 430w PSU. The rest of the specs are a basic low budget Skylake build starring the i3 6320. Made the whole thing for $330.

My buddy was gaming on a dual core APU at 3.6ghz, and he thought pretty highly of it, so I gave him my 750ti and got this! I was just wondering what kind of boost I might get with this upgrade, seeing as how I'll have to wait a few days.

The particular 380x is the xfx r9 380x dd xxx oc.

Also, is it appropriate to make a post like this?

You will get a very significant boost in graphics quility.
your GPU can do any game on high settings at 1080p.
You might be limited with CPU in some games, but dropping in an i5 or even i7 at some point later will fix it.
When you hit a game which does not perform well enough, check the CPU and GPU utilization in game.
If the CPU is at over 90% usage while GPU is under 90% -> time to upgrade the CPU,

The above chart needs an update but both the card you had and the one you replaced it with are on it. You can see that the performance level of the RX280 is 4 levels above the GTX 750Ti. It is a massive upgrade.

Quantifying it more accurately than that "massive upgrade" statement is difficult, but you should be able to turn up quality settings quite a bit and/or get much higher frame rates than you did on the 750Ti.

Take a look at the review of the Intel i3 6320 vs Intel i5 6600K vs Intel i5 4690K Benchmarks
Here is passmarks info on the grpahics.

Thanks for the benchmarks, but I won't be able to upgrade my CPU for several months. I picked a component to upgrade that would provide the biggest improvement.
