Hello to you all, this s my first time in TOm´s Hardware.
I need your advice before i buy something I´ll regret.
Before all, i´m looking for a gaming PC.
My PC N°1:
Amd Athlon FX 6100
XFX Radeon HD 6870 1 GB
8 GB RAM - 1333
My PC N°2:
Intel I7 2600K
XFX Radeon HD 6870 1 GB
16 GB RAM - 1333
I´m looking to do one of the following purchases.
Option Number One:
* Buy an 850 W PSU.
* Buy 1 Radeon HD 7970 3 GB
Put the Radeon HD 7970 3 GB on the Athlon FX 6100 PC
Crossfire The 2 XFX Radeon HD 6870 1 GB on the Intel I7 2600K PC
Option Number Two:
* Buy an Intel I7 3770 Processor
* Buy an Asus Motherboard
* Buy an extra 8 GB RAM - 1333
Take all the parts (XFX Radeon HD 6870 1 GB; HDD; PSU; etc etc.) from the Athlon FX 6100 PC and assemble a new PC.
Which on do you think it´s the best choice for gaming?
My Regards
