    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    Thanks , the 4670k is only £14 more than 4670 , so i'll just go with the k version. All I need to do now is go home and study cases , because from what 1 of you guys mentioned earlier (MATX having only 4 drive slots) I'm pretty sure mine must be MATX and ill need ATX with as many fans as...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    Ya ,you got it right there , I would like this pc setup to last me 3+ years , I would rather not have to fiddle with it all again after this :p I looked up a comparison between the 270x and 770 . 770 seemed so much better , pretty exciting to be honest haha ! So the cpu - i4670k GPU- nvidia...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    Sorry I didnt get back for a bit guys , had some family issues to sort out. I bought the MSI r9 270x 2g , and finally got time to put it in last night , it seems very strong and doesn't work hard when DayZ was running , but my CPU is working all cores at about 80-90% and seems to be...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    So as long as my CPU isnt too shabby from that graph the R9 270X looks pretty strong , my CPU used to run at below 50% I think on battlefield3 medium to high graphics. That API sounds smart , I wiki'd it. Does it basically take the hard work away from the CPU and onto the GPU more ? Sounded...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    I had a browse through the TPU reviews but im at work at the moment and doin it on my galaxy S4 is a bit of a task (got about 15 tabs open lolol) the MSI 270x seemed to get some good ratings though , do you think the EVGA card is actually better or more 'bang for buck' ? I don't mind paying a...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    Ok s So if I got this graphics card to tide me over for a bit , it wouldn't be compatible with an Intel mobo and CPU Would it ? Would I need a new graphics card if I was to switch to intel CPU ?

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    @the54thvoid Yes that looks like the correct motherboard as I took a video of all my specs on CPU-Z at the end of last night. Here is a screenshot of the video saying I do have this 'AM3+' you mentioned I think ? http://imgur.com/zIwzWse Good CPU upgrade path means I could just switch...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    So the 270X card is decent enough , but my main processor is a bit shabby , I can replace that in time though right ? Then maybe crossfire the 270X ? Would I see a better performance increase with a new main processor or graphics card you think ? Ya DayZ is alpha so you mean it for examples...

    Is this a good gaming pc spec?

    Hi all , I bought my pc over 2 years ago and its struggling to run the recently released 'DayZ standalone' in any decent settings without very poor FPS. Im currently using a 'AMD Radeon HD 6700 series'. Im looking at buying the 'MSI Radeon R9 270 2GB' link below...
