[SOLVED] Will this graphic card work with my setup

[jay781]

Hi i have a i7 950 with 12gb ram i have found a r9 380 4gb nitro sapphire graphic which i would like to buy but im not sure if this card would this work well with my cpu and will it bottleneck with my cpu?.

It will work fine. What's the price though? A brand new RX570 for $130 would be faster and less power hungry.

hi i found the used r9 380 for 72usd

Think about the power supply. What power supply unit are you currently using? That's probably even more important than the CPU you're combining with.

hi the power supply is a xfx 650watt

Power supply should be fine. There are used rx-570 that should perform better for around 80-90$ on ebay. Just letting you know some more options in case you can splurge for bit more performance. The i7-950 is getting a little old at this point, but shouldn't really bottleneck, at least not too hard for what an r9-380 or rx-570 could do at least.
