pc build ....

[therandomguy00]

hello! i bought a gaming pc 2 years ago . i wondering if its getting outdated soon...

:
intel core i7
ASUS p8z77-v lx2 motherboard
ASUS amd radeon HD7700 1gb
16gb RAM
cooler master 700w
2 tb memory
1920x1080x60 hertz

Not really, 16gb RAM is way more than is needed today, i7 also is more than needed and it is also ivy bridge which is only last gen. 700w is great, 2tb storage is more than needed too. The only thing that I would upgrade is the graphics card, 7700 series is pretty out of date and is not the best of cards. I was wondering if you could tell me how much money you have to upgrade.

will it work to assasins creed unity and bf4 and stuff like that? i have a lot of corsair fans in my pc so the components is always very cool.. the system is always around 23 celsius

the graphics card will work, but not to much satisfaction. The rest of the system should hold up very well as I can play pretty much all games and I only have an i5 and 8gb of RAM, however I do have a gtx 770 which is a great graphics card

This graphics card is amazing and is better than mine in most cases, The price is $269.99 with a $20 mail in rebate which takes it down to $249.99

If you aren't in America or in a country that uses USD then just tell me where you can get parts to ship to your country.

im a little of a AMD fan but ok x) time to try something new. thaat gpu looks amazing! 😀 3 fans... whats the size of that? i dont know if it fits 😛 i live in finland, things here is a little more expensive (people puts too much money in the saunas ;p) but ill buy it anyway :3

The graphics card should fit. You'll have to see first by clicking on the parts list that I posted and then edit it, then you click add case and then find your case. Are you going to buy the graphics card or do you want something a little less expensive because I don't know where to get the graphics cards from that have your currency. Just let me know and if your happy with the graphics card then I hope I have helped. If you are happy just click "pick as the solution" to give me a small "bump back". Thank you

[DeadGraphics]

Don't worry, R9 290 will run just fine.
If you want an nvidia card then here is the one that I use:

I recommend that you get this card if you care about temperature, noise and if you are more of an nvidia fan.
If you care more about performance then go for the r9 290. I would get the GTX 770 because it is a little bit cheaper and also I am a bit of an nvidia fanboy.
That particular GTX 770 is the one I have currently in my rig and take my word for it, it's great for gaming
