RX 570. Any leftover money should be prioritized to a better PSU (not for more watts, but for quality)

My ideal budget will be $100 but I can maybe stretch it to like $150?

Is this PSU so bad in quality that I should switch immediately?

If you can buy from Amazon/Newegg, Rx570 is the best choice right now.

Get a 570 (or 1060, whatever's cheaper), buy a better PSU and overclock the fuck out of your 4790K.

Dota 2 will enjoy that.

btw I'm just using a stock cooler. what cooler would you recommend?

Could probably throw a Cryorig H7 in there and it should cool it just fine.

That being said, I dunno how much those go for.

Check out my guide on how to scan cover art here!

Check Reddit hardware swap. Rx 570s go for about $80 shipped. Also eBay has them around $85-$90

depends on the exact model year. The older one with orange label should be thrown out right away, the grey one is fine for short term.

Yes, if you're so tight on budget you can't push more money into your GPU, worth keeping that cooler.

Here's a cheap deal on an RX 570 without paying full retail: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131737R

Go for that if money is tight.

Thank you Sir, but I can't buy there.. I'm not in the US so instead of spending on shipping fee I'll just buy locally and get more budget.?

You kept asking for a recommended brand but that would require us to know what country you are buying in.  You listed your budget in USD so perhaps you could be more forthcoming?  ?
