What's the best GPU for me?

[niekdbgc]

I was looking for a GPU that doesn't have bottlenecking and stuff because my CPU, Intel i3 4160 isn't that great.. So what's the best one to be able to play minecraft without any issues, and games like AC I and II?
I have 4gb ram and a sharkoon Ma-1000 or something case, idk the motherboard But it has a PCI-E 16 slot.

What PSU do you have, make and model?

450 Watt, i'd say it's 80+ Bronze. I'm going to look for the model number for cables and stuff tomorrow.

gtx 750 ti

As long as its not a bottom end PSU you could use a GTX 950 or 960 depending on budget

It's a standard Corsair VS450 (450W), motherboard is Intel MSI H81M-E34. I currently have just a CPU, hdd and ssd plugged into it, besides the MB and stuff, No other GPU. Budget is like 100€ or something, and not to difficult to install lol.

My Bad, CPU isn't plugged into the PSU 😉

Get the 750Ti. And who told you i3-4160 isn't good? i3-4160+750Ti will be able to play any game at 1080p full hd with good fps.

I read some stuff on the internet saying that it wouldn't do the job. Also these days, sometimes my PC is very slow because the cpu usage is like, 90+%. So I thought, maybe the CPU isn't good.

So, the 750ti is pretty expensive here.. What if I would do like, the Sapphire 240 1GB GDDR5 Boost? I mean, it requires 400 Watt and I have 450, and it should be able to run the games I play. (AC: I & II, Minecraft, and I could torrent basically anything.) it's also almost half the price 😛

That's scraping at the bottom of the gddr5 barrel. You get what you pay for. In the case of a 240, that's low fps. Try a gddr5 250 at a minimum...

I guess I could wait until its price will drop, dont need it that bad now
