Suggest New Midrange Graphics card

Hi,

I have a business computer that I want to run 'no mans sky' on. I  don't know what to get, I run MS-Flight Sim 'X' Gold fine with my current setup but am not sure about how No Mans Sky will run.

i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40 showing 8 cores

I have:Intel HD Graphics 4600

NViDIA quadro K2000

32 GB RAM

512 GB SSD 

2 TB 7200 Hard Drive

 

Please help. I don't think my current video cards will do it.

I run 3 screens off my current DELL Precision with above specs.

I am not looking for the best, just something that will let me run the game... 'No Mans Sky' well enough to enjoy it,

Thank you very much. 

David

well, midrange today means either a 1060 6GB or a 1070 8GB. They can both be had for around $250 - $300 US, but one will be used and the other will be new.

[FS][US] Corsair H115i 280mm AIO-AMD $60+shipping

The RX 570 is the best price-performance mid-range GPU on the market right now, but the RX 580/GTX 1060 or Vega 56/GTX 1070ti will give you a noticeable uplift, especially with overclocking. With the latter two tiers, just get whichever is cheaper.
