Ati Radeon R9 270x (4 gb ddr5 edition)

[Sarkknight]

I have a question first -

 

  Is R9 270x worth it ?

   What kind of Power supply unit you need ?

The 4g r9 270x isnt worth it because its too slow to utilize that memory and normally costs as much as faster gpus. Also you would need at least a good 450-500w psu.

well its a good price to performance card if that's what you mean, and it depends on your whole system specs?

[Guest]

Better get 280 for that price.

Bruh. It's not ATI Radeon. It's AMD Radeon.

Someone who is getting 270x is not getting it because he can get 290x crossfire

By asking is it worth it he meant is it good for that money...

Whats your problem?

@Sarkknight please follow your posts.

 

It would be good if you could link us to the store website and tell us your budget, so we can pick whats best for you.

It's not ati, it's amd radeon. 4gb for that card is just silly and pointless, instead get something like a 280 or 285.

[Ceatra]

he can get 290x sli

 

Didn't know you could SLI AMD/ATi GPU's

[Ceatra]

Bruh. It's not ATI Radeon. It's AMD Radeon.

It's pretty much the same... AMD bought ATi back in 2006... They continued making GPU's with the name ATI until they launched a new series of GPU's, that's where they announced they would change the name ATi to AMD...

well here it is i am goin for an AMD quad core PC FX4300+ cause if i want to go for the 4 gb edition and stuff is expensive here in India 

[Sarkknight]

Processor [FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE ASKING FOR THE BUILD THIS IS MY POTENTIAL BUILD AND I ALREADY BOUGHT THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT AND THE CABINET]

 

AMD FX 4300+ (3.8Ghz clock speed,quad core,2 x 2MB L2 Cache)

 

MotherBoard 

 

GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ 

Graphics Card

 

Zotac Nvidia GTX 750ti (2 GB,GDDR5)

 

Power Supply Unit 

 

Corsair VS series VS650 (650 watt)

 

Cabinet

 

Cooler Master Elite 372 

 

RAM

 

Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1x8 GB)

 

well i already own a Seagate Barracuda 500 gb hard drive and an LED screen 

 

 

So this is what my build is gonna be now i wanted get suggestions from yo guy whether i should go for some other kind of GPU,CPU plus i am not a very big fan of overclocking as i live in New Delhi so power cuts are very rare in the area where i live but power fluctuations are high so i avoid overclocking.

[Sarkknight]

PS - I am still in school i am gonna spend almost $600 for this build so please don't advise on going for expensive GPU/Processor 

 

Thank you very much 

[Megahurt]

The regular 270/270X is very good performance for the money, the 4GB version will not be any better and will cost more.

Didn't know you could SLI AMD/ATi GPU's

I was in a hurry

[zappian]

270x 4 GB is like putting a jet engine on a ford pinto.

 

Not worth it.

Thank you very much 

I'd go for that 4130 #9 intel cpu with that 750 ti price wise tbh

 

means you have to pick another board too

 

if you have extra consider upgrading to that 270 on their or the 760

[Sarkknight]

So all you need is the CPU, mobo, GPU and RAM.

 

I assume your budget is Rs 35,820? Because that's the combined price of the parts you intend to buy.

 

FX4300 = 5450

Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 = 9390

R9 270X 4GB = 15990

Corsair Vengeance 8 GB = 4990

Yeah now the problem is is the GPU worth it is it gonna enough or should i go for a FX6300+ and a GTX 750ti or if i go with the R9 270x 4gb should i be going for a 500+ PSU ?

don't do the 270x 4gb, just do the regular 270 2gb its cheaper and will give you similar performance

[Sarkknight]

Well that sounds like a nice build damn 

 

but the questions now i have why should i go for an i5 not an FX+6300 ?

[Sarkknight]

well time for reviews
