rx460 or gtx 750ti for athlon II x4 635

[1234error]

Hi,

I decided to change my current GPU on something more efficient but I have some hesitation.

Here's my config:

cpu_cooler: cooler master Hyper 212X (EU ver.)

MB: ga-ma785gmt-ud2h
CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 635 (non overclocked)
VGA: hd 5750
RAM: 4gb
PSU: 400W
OS: Windows 10 x64 home

I know that my hardware isn’t up to date but I don’t want to spend a lot of money for a whole new platform. I’m thinking about rx 460 2gb and GTX 750ti and gtx 1050ti. I’d like to choose best GPU for my old CPU.

Thx mates!
p.s: i can overclock
Edit:gtx 1050

⦿ Reasons to consider Radeon RX 460

> 32% higher gaming performance.
> This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support.
> Supports Direct3D 12 Async Compute.
> Supports FreeSync.
> Supports ReLive (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty).
> Supports TrueAudio.

⦿ Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 750 Ti

> Supports PhysX.
> Supports G-Sync.
> Supports ShadowPlay (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty).

⦿ Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 1050

> Supports PhysX.
> Supports G-Sync.
> Supports ShadowPlay (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty).

It's also depends on what applications ( Software ) your are going to use.If you just want to buy for Gaming,Entertainment,etc. then go with Radeon RX 460

4GB is going to be better only if it is being used. This will depend upon your application, but generally this means you will be able to play games with higher settings. More complex models, more detailed textures, more ornamentation. Games ship with 3d objects of varying detail, so you may have to settle for objects on a 2GB card with coarser mesh, less detailed (and fewer overall) textures and so on.

As well, in some games larger gaming areas load on demand, and previous areas may need to be re-loaded if they have been discarded, more memory mitigates this.

Further, today’s cards perform post processing computations, notably FXAA, which is like a “photoshop” of the rendered frame to smooth out the rough bits, extra memory helps here too.


> Any card with 2GB is sufficient for dual monitor configurations . If you are going for more than two monitors then you might need to consider 4GB cards and also consider what is mentioned above.

will that builds bottleneck?

Yes but don't expect much as of your cpu is pretty old.From your 3 choices Rx 460 will suits you.

Given the age of your CPU, does the motherboard have legacy or UEFI BIOS? Most modern cards don't work without UEFI.

yes sir, thank you for help

i coudnt saw these options

I've seen these kinds of CPUs, Athlon II X4s, hit a performance peak with a GTX 950. Considering the 750 Ti and RX 460 are both slightly slower than that, and that a card like the 1050 Ti is faster than that, I'd go with a 750 Ti or RX 460. The 2gb versions are enough. Games that really need 4gb vram to be playable are going to need a better CPU as well, so I wouldn't worry about not having the 4gb vram.

Because of the lack of UEFI, I'd stay away from the newer Nvidia cards. That leaves the 750 Ti or RX 460.
