Hi all!
In 2012 I put a computer together for video editing. I do play games sometimes, but not very often. I can't play more recent games now because of my GPU. I'm looking into updating my graphics card so I can run newer games, or with higher details.
Here's my set-up:
PSU: Antec EarthWatts 650W
MB: Gigabyte GZ-Z77X-UDH3
CPU: Intel i7-3770
RAM: Corsair Vengean LP 16gb DDR3 1600mhz
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 6850
I'm looking into spending around 200$ max. I'm located in Canada. I've been looking around a bit, there are so many choices.
I'm thinking about getting a RX 570 8GB. There's a 40$ sale on it right now at CanadaComputers: https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_558&item_id=107533
Is the 8gb version overkill for me? Should I just get a regular 4gb model, are there other options in this price range? I like to run games with the triple monitor set-up, but it's not a necessity for me.
