Upgrading My Computer

[SeqLTwisT]

Hello i have a £300 budget to spend on upgrading my computer
Currently on my computer i have:
I5 3470
Asus GTX 760
8GB of Ram
I play alot of open world high fps survival games such as Rok and Ark and Arma

What should i buy to improve further performance on my games ?

graphics card, and possibly the PSU depending on what you have

Better videocard and 144Hz monitor.

Processor is good, ram is good, like listed above you need to upgrade your graphics card

you can't get a 144hz monitor and a card powerful enough to run it for £300, the cheapest 144 I can find over here is just over £210

Ok thanks all but do you recommend any particular graphic cards in my budget ?

 

[yatys93]

what PSU have you got, just to make sure it will keep up 😛 no point spending that kind of money on something you can't use

Check here, it also lists the wattages with the PSUs, I'm no expert at psus so someone will have to recommend one to you once you've chosen a graphics card from this list

I would say http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sapphire-Radeon-Tri-X-Graphics-Express/dp/B00I7N9E9A/ref=sr_1_86?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1434242044&sr=1-86&keywords=amd+graphics+card

that is a great card, I was going to get 2, although I prefer the Vapor-X version as its cooler, changed my mind as the new 1s are out this week

It is a corsair Vs450

ok so you need a better one for the GPU I linked, as it needs more than that, 750w to be precise

Would the Corsair CX 750 be a good match ?

Apologies if it sounds like I am interrupting your conversation. The Corsair CX 750 receives bad reviews (like it dies in 15 days, the graphics card doesn't work with it etc.)

was just reading up on it, Im getting the same results, bad choice. I would recommend the corsair 750 or 850 HXi

Oh ok any 750w you recommend that will fit the requirements?

 

[Reyaz123]

See the ones yatys93 recommends you to use

Thank you both for the help

Thank you both for the help

just a point, if you don't get that card, you won't need that PSU, but the price of the card will change next week I assume, as the R9 300 series comes out, as I already mentioned lol
