hi i have a desktop which i am happy with and have had for 4 yrs i think. i'm considering upgrading my graphics card from the AMD radeon R9 200 series. problem is i have no clue what i need. i do know i want more than the 2gbyte. and better fps. my card runs fine and plays my games well but would like to have better fps on some games. also im not looking to break the bank. my computer runs this.
CPU Type
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
Graphics Chipset
AMD Radeon (TM) R9 200 Series, Memory Type GDDR5 , System Memory 16 GB ,Core Clock 925 MHz. many thanks
Go with a Brand new PSU decent wattage over estimate wattage as PSUs these days are crap quality even for the good ones dont last like they use to the degrade prety quickly as they get older. Suggest a RX580 if you like your R9 & had a good run go with the RX580 with the 8G Vram will be ample for more of those strenuous newer games to be released in the next few years & if you wanna go freesync or VR later your future proofed. If you dont like it sell your older card to miners to pay for your new card then on sell your new card for miners, win win really. You cant go wrong with AMDs new cards prety damn strong prety good value & preformance comes down to preference & if you have had a good run with AMD as sound like you have.
