R9 270X Perfomance

[tjokrohw]

Is R9 270X a good recent VGA?
Can this VGA handle games like battlefield 4, far cry 3, blacklist, cod, bioshock infinite, total wars 2, etc in Ultra sets?

Worth to buy?

Great Card. Should be able to play all the games you listed (IDK about Total war, Never Played) at Ultra settings at 1080p.

AMD Radeon R9 270X is a little faster than the older HD 7870 or Nvidia GTX 660.
You can expect at least 40 FPS in Battlefield 4 at 1920x1080 ultra settings:

This is providing your CPU can also manage 40 FPS.

In Far Cry 3 at 1920x1080 ultra quality, you should get at least 30 FPS:

Other games you have mentioned have lower requirements.

battlefield 4 should play at ultra 1080 p at the minimum of 35 fps.average 45 fps.

I think mix of High/Ultra is more appropriate. BF4 multi-player will cause the frames to fluctuate quite a bit. While the averages are in the 30s and 40s, you should expect a to minimums below that. Crysis is even more GPU heavy.

The rest of the games will be fine. But you also haven't listed your CPU. That will also define the performance you'll get. What is it?

I'm gonna combine the VGA with intel i5-4440 and 8GB DDR3 RAM

Solid and strong CPU. Did you already buy the 270x? Make sure you have a good quality power supply.

I gonna buy it this week. I will use 500W 80+ PSU, is it okay?

 

[barto]

A 500w PSU should be fine.

 

[barto]

I should ask, what is the make and model of the psu?

FSP, its a brand from taiwan.
What do you think?

FSP make a lot of different power supplies. Which model is it?

FSP Hexa 500W 80+

Combined +12V rating of 408W.
Your components can load this to about 75%, which is under the 80% maximum I would recommend.
Quality is OK based on this review of the 400W model:
http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=341

The only thing I would note is that this is a power supply designed for input voltages of 200-240V.
If you live in a country with 110V mains power, this is supply is not good to you.
If you have 240V mains power, it should be fine.

Hmmm. What he said.
