Hey, First off thanks for all you're replies in advance!
My current rig is:
CPU: AMD A8 6500 Quad core processor @3.50Ghz
RAM: 6GB of DDR3.. of the 4 slots available two are being used, one 4GB and one 2GB.
GPU: Radeon 8570D HD + 8470D Dual Graphics (I think the 8470 is removable and the 8570 is built-in but i may be wrong)
OS: Windows 8.1
I am buying a R9 290X
(http://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-290X-GAMING-Graphics-PCI-E/dp/B00HQJBWIM#productDetails)
And i currently have a 300w psu, What do i need to upgrade too to get max performance with as little money as possible? also i have no idea if my cpu or ram will bottleneck that card so any advice on that would be good. also if you want to suggest a different card for the price i will be happy to look over your opinions.
(want to spend £250 ish on a graphics card and the r9 290x seems to be an insane deal at that price or am i mistaken?)
Once again, thank you!
