This is the list of the things I wanted to upgrade.I would like to play games like Witcher 3 on 1080p. How much fps would I get? Do you think this is ok or do i have to change anything? I'm on a budget of 500€, have 550w power supply and I think this is all you guys need.

You will be able to play it at ultra-very high 60fps like me especially if you OC or if you OC and get the ftw edition

( I have Palit Super Jetsream)

Would you prefer 2gb version or 4gb? I have 1080p screen.

 

[stavrosmast]

I got the 2gb version and I regretted this a lot. Get
The 2gb even for 1080p witcher 3,gta v, ac unity, and games like that cosume more than 2048mb confirmed...

 

[stavrosmast]

4gb*

 

[Sapphire Thunder]

If possible, get i5 4670/4690 instead of 4590.

 

[stavrosmast]

Get the cheapest 4th gen if you can there is no big difference between the i5's except if you get a "K" Version

Where? Does it involve extra texture packs for instance.If so maybe ask the OP if he's going to use those.

Why indeed?

 

[stavrosmast]

No Its not with higher res textures... Games like these I mentioned and many more need morethan 2gb... I cna give you examples if u want

 

[Vic 40]

I cna give you examples if u want

That's why i ask "Where?".

Could be a good point for going AMD since in the same price/performance range having more Vram.Well some gpu's like the R9 280/380.

 

[stavrosmast]

Shadow of mordor,ac unity,arkham knight,dying light,metro 2033, call of duty AW (some examples)

 

[stavrosmast]

And these i mentioned already

 

[Vic 40]

That's what not where.

Example like this,

tells the opposite btw.

 

[Sapphire Thunder]

Why indeed?

It's because the 4570/4590 had worse thermal design in comparison. (at least that's what I have heard)

 

[Vic 40]

You mean they get hotter? All have the same TDP. Maybe depends on the chip you get.

A nice after market cooler would be on my list anyway.Doesn't even need to be an expensive one,something like a Deepcool GammXX S40 or Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO.With hours of gaming a good bit of extra cooling will be nice.

At least that's what I remember hearing. And that is the reason they brought the improved thermal design in 4670 and 4690. TDP is of course the same in them but that doesn't give the whole truth about how hot they get.

 

[Vic 40]

I would rather spend the difference in price at a cooler than a faster chip.

Yeah, that would be a good choice as well to do.

 

[Vic 40]

Other option would be undervolting.All chips are not the same and motherboards as well.Maybe some set the stock Vcore abit high,a possibillity.Could manually lower that,test with prime5 for stability.

Anyway,with a few hours gaming will the system and therefore cpu get hot so the cooler is a nice addition.

Well I'm going to use texture packs so ill probably go with 4gb

Well so that i5 i wanted to buy just lowered its price for 10$ so yea ill probably buy a cooler.
