hey guys , just a quick question
like the title says i want to buy a gpu that my system can handle
current specs:
phenom 2 x4 925
gigabyte ga 970a ud3p
500w chieftech iarena psu
4g hyperx 1600hz ram
case is a deepcool kendomen
i have a lg 1920x1080 60hz monitor 5ms

i currently own a gtx 750 but i think that card is faulty since im getting weird yellow ish lines going up the screen so im using my old hd4670 which has no probs and im looking for a better gpu
mostly gonna play mmos like blade and soul or black desert, stuff like that. budget is around 200 euro.

The 'bad news' is that the PhII 925 has a lower clock speed and locked CPU multiplier ---- the good news is that it's a 95w Deneb quad and you have a -UD3P, meaning 'old school overclocking' with the system clock is easily within your grasp. You should have no issues clocking beyond a PhII 965 clock speed with your RAMs (1600MHz RAMs are a 'slam dunk' for a 240MHz system clock --- stock is 200MHz)

As GF noted, poor PSU performance could be driving your video problems. If you download and run an OCCT CPU test for an hour, a window will open will a series of charts that show the power delivery along the lines in your system --- that will likely reveal any PSU issues you may be having.
