Afternoon all,
Im looking to purchase CoD Modern Warfare as my first PC cod as previously cod was the only game I'd continue to buy on console.
My current setup was built 8(?) years ago so fairly outdated for newer games, however it's seen me through as now a days I only really play LoL and WoW what with managing a career and a family.
Therefore I'm only looking to upgrade what really NEEDS to be upgraded so I can (preferably) plad MW on 1080p ultra.
My current specs are:
OS: Windows 10 64 bit
Mobo: Gigabyte Z77-D3H (f14 bios)
CPU: i5 3570k with Hyper 212 Evo cooler
GPU: Asus GeForce 660ti
Ram: 3x4 sticks DDR3 1600mhz Corsair Vengeance Ram (Mobo limited to 1333mhz)
Storage: 1tb HDD general storage + 250 Samsung Evo SSD for OS
My question is would simply upgrading the GPU to an RX 580 8gb be enough for MW with my current specs as the beta ran OK (although i wish I'd played with the settings some more and actually did some benchmarking...), or would I also need to look at changing other parts?
I've noticed some people have questioned the compatibility of a Ga-Z77 board with the RX 580 but others have said it works fine. Also would DDR3 ram be sufficient?
Appreciate any feedback!
