Low Budget Gaming PC

[nsmd]

Optimal GPU to be paired with intel corei3 3220 ?? For gaming @900p .....all latest titles @ high settings ??

depends how low of a budget. Go for a rx 480 if you can afford it, if not I would say a rx 470 or 460.

Don;t go for Rx 480 your CPU will bottleneck it , I have almost same CPU but little bit older , I would suggest to go for something like rx 460 or gtx 950 .

ya i have an RX 460 in mind?? but what about GTX 750Ti ?? would it suffice ?? and btw i have 8 gigs DDR3 Ram

 

[Ethanh100]

460 will perform better than a 750ti.

cool thanks !!

For 900p a 460 or 950 would be a great choice .
The 750ti is firmly a 720p card with newer titles now.

His cpu will bottleneck probably all of the nowadays cards... But that doesn't mean he won't upgrade the cpu in the future. I think it would be wiser to buy a good gpu now, have it bottlenecked and later a good cpu to pair with it.

If he goes with a weaker one now, he'll have to upgrade the gpu again in the future, IMO that is.
Both RX 480 and GTX 1060 are excelent options for now imo,

But he asked for "Optimal GPU to be paired with intel corei3 3220". Ya sure if he is planing to upgrade his cpu soon ya better to get a good gpu .

 

[nsmd]

not planning to upgrade CPU till my current cpu (i3 3220) burns or something 😛 so suggest a GPU accordingly.........i dont mind medium to high settings @ 900p

 

[nsmd]

Currently im running on a GT 630...im able to play MK X @ 720p medium settings getting 30 fps.... NFS Rivals 720p low 30 fps..........Crysis 3 Low 35-40 fps..........BF4 900p 30+ fps

Rx 460 or Gtx 950 here is a benchmark video to look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RtTzsUhwxY .
