Well after thinking i bricked my motherboard during carrying out maintenance and collecting pictures for you guys, i am finally here to ask for advice for upgrading my rig.
I have singled out the r9 290x as my card of choise but feel free to offer alternatives. I got my current XFX 7770 and my system two years ago and seeing the system requirements of recent releases i want a card which is going to be able to enjoy the Playstation4/Xbone era of gaming and some after that. I always regretting not going for the 7870 when buying my custom build as my 7770 is lacking when selecting high/ultra in some games.
-
Will this card first, even fit into my system? (i have already moved the HDD down to make hanging room for it).
-
Is my PSU up to scratch? Its not a very well known brand but i understand it has that '80 bronze' rating thingy, will it power it?
-
Which brand of card do you recommend? I heard the card is loud but im not bothered about uber mode but i dont want it to be mega audible.
Here are my specs:
Inside my system, showing measurement of how big the new card will be.
My Psu, 600w with 1x 6pin and 1x 8pin (6pin+2pin)
Any help regarding any questions will be appreciated
