Hello all,
Can I get by with a new GPU upgrade or do I need to look at replacing more. I've got a AMD system I built in 2014. At the time it was a pretty quick computer, and performed well on games. Not so much the case today, I'm increasingly having to pair down the settings to maintain a good frame rate in games. I'm considering either upgrading the GPU, or if I have to MOBO/CPU/GPU. I'd prefer not to for cost reasons if at all possible. PC is as follows
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0
AMD FX-9370
AMD Radeon R9 290
32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866
Dual display ASUS 28" 1080p
Thermaltake Overseer RX-1
Antec 620w PSU
Now my motherboard has 2 x PCIe 2.0 x16, and says it does have CrossFireX and SLI support. I'm plenty happy with the computing abilities I've seen from the FX-9370. What would be a good GPU to get my computer running 60+ FPS on new games with setting high or maxed? Or am I looking at a complete rebuild?
Thanks for your time!
