Which is better for gaming?

[khali20830]

Hey I have a AMD A4-5300 Trinity 3.4GHz. I was wondering if I should just use my EN9600GT silent, or should i dual graphics my PC and pair it with ASUS HD6670-2GD3 Radeon HD 6670?

Will the EN9600GT run games fast and at higher settings or will the dual graphics work better with the ASUS HD6670?

If this is your cpu, then a 6670 isn't compatible for AMD's Dual Graphics. Only the A10, A8, and A6 processors support this technology, not your A4.

A dual core cpu is really not good at all for gaming. I would suggest upgrading it.
What is your motherboard?
This will tell me what you can upgrade to.

The 6670 is significantly better. I would go with that card. Dual graphics won't improve preformance very much, so 6670 will do most of the work.

Like I said, his processor doesn't support Dual Graphics.

Thanks for the reply from both of u. Also xxthunder i was told dual graphics was available threw this CPU. I know alot of upgrades for my set up but this is a budget build. My last mobo and CPU died and even this CPU is a major upgrade from the old. So if the dual graphics is not available would it be better to go with the EN9600GT or the 6670 OR can i find a better card than both of these for less than 100$?

The 6670 and the older 9600GT aren't the best, but since you already own the 9600, I suggest using it. If you can afford it, go for an R7 250X. Here is a list of all from Newegg:

If that's too much, go down to one of these:

After looking ill go with the r7. Specifications show 150w to power. My question is with can a 500w power supply support everything in my pc or should i get a more powerful power supply?

Pc specs:

Case is RAIDMAX SMILEODON Extreme black edition

PSU 500w

CPU AMD A4-5300 Trinity 3.4GHz

Mobo ASUS A55BM-A

Ram Team Elite Plus 8GB ddr3 1333.

Oh yeah 500 watts is more than twice what you need, maybe even 3 times. You could be fine on a 300 watt to tell the truth. An R7 might use 70 watts max load, so you're fine.

Glad I helped!
