Question

Hello, what graphics card to buy for this processor to improve gaming performance? Currently my graphics card is: Asus Radeon R9 270 OC 2GB DDR5 The power supply is: Corsair VS550 RAM: I was thinking about the GTX 1060 974808 / The maximum budget is PLN 1,300. I had to edit, gave the wrong ram...

Start with adding RAM - then the comfort of the game will increase.

ok, I will increase to 16GB, but what graphics card should I buy? Because the frames will not help me much in Just Cause 3 or BF1

sosarek · Answer

Well, you're in a BIG mistake, even with the GTX1070 and 4GB RAM you won't play comfortably - the card is not everything, the operating memory is also important. Even adding another 4GB will improve the performance of the set.

GTX 1060 will be your best choice

With current games, 8GB is enough, so you can buy 4GB for now and it will be enough.

As for the card, there are two proposals in your budget that are noteworthy. GTX 1060 and RX 480. Radeon is a cheaper option so far, but it does not mean that it is worse. GTX 1060 is better in DX11 games and RX 480 better in DX12 games. In my opinion, Radeons can handle the passage of time better and newer games will probably perform better on Radeon. Therefore, and also because of the price difference, I would take the RX.

I thought about Radeon, but I'm afraid that again when a new game comes out, it will be a situation like with "GTA 5", where AMD graphics cards "clashed" with Intel processors, I have never achieved such performance as with, for example:
i5 4440 and GTX750

and apparently they are very similar graphics cards, the GTX was much cheaper when I was buying my R9 270.

I think I will decide on the GTX 1060, because the DX 12 only works on the W10, and I use the W7 myself and I have no intention of changing the system.

You can take 1060 but some better version, now for the price of what Gigabyte you have Asus Strix, better cooling culture and producer soft noteworthy -gddr5-192-bit-1x-dvi-d-2x-hdmi-2x-displayport-strix-gtx1060-6g-gaming-774584 /

The Gtx 1060 is no better choice. Half a year ago, RXs were weaker in older games, usually stronger in newer ones. At the moment the situation has changed because AMD has released a lot of patches for bad drivers. For proof, I suggest you watch the tests of these cards not older than two months

lukasbiggie · Answer

but how will it work on dx11? because dx12 will not install on Windows 7.

n.vision · Answer

You have an original system and you don't want to slim down? Well, the matter is debatable, it's best to look at the reviews yourself. But as I say, those from two months ago, others are out of date. Both cards are similar, in such a situation I wouldn't know what to choose. The GTX has a lower power consumption and is probably a bit more efficient, depending on the title, but the RX has 8GB of RAM and will probably be supported longer by well-optimized drivers. That's my opinion, I would hesitate. Btw, think about it Windows 10, because Microsoft is putting a heavy pressure on the market and more and more games are supported only on this system

I used to be used to XP, when the seven went cheaper, I bought 7, now I feel good on it, if none of my favorite games come out on W7, then I will buy updates.

I recommend Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 WindForce II OC has good cooling and is cheap below PLN 1,300
