What do you suggest a nvidia and amd. the 700 series and r9-200 series. I'm planning to buy a high end GPU either of nvdia or amd.. Is my cpu, mobo and ram bottleneck? etc.What do I need to do? upgrade or what?
Additional CM 212x or 212 evo or Noctua for cpu cooler. what is recommended PSU and brand? Thank you in advance linus.#support

P.S.: Tight budget to buy a new system unit.

You didn't even tell us that your cpu or ram or PC specs are...

And you didn't tell us a budget...you just said 'tight' which for some people means $700 for a graphics card.

intel cpu and amd gpu if you are going for high end

just want to know that my specs won't bottleneck to r9-290x and 780?

get r9 290x. Its slightly faster than 780 and get some intel cpu. I doubt anything will bottleneck. You can get fx 6300 or fx 8320 and i should not bottleneck but you can get intel and get faster per core performance. Its up to you

what do you have in mind (intel cpu)? I'm not familiar with AMD cpu and it'll goes hard for me to buy another mobo for amd cpu. another expenses. Anyway, Thanks to all!

btw i'm planning to buy either of this 3: i7 875k, i7 880 or i7 870.. i think 3 tiers from my current cpu, am I right?

You'd probably be better off buying a new cpu and motherboard with better support. LGA 1156 is pretty much a dead platform at this point in time.

That's my problem i'm off the budget. if its still usable then i'll use it until the end of time.. Some advice said its just a little bottleneck. What cpu and mobo you think rocks! hahaha you really do stupid comments based on your profile. peace man!

your clarkdale i3 cpu will most likely bottleneck a highend gpu 290 (x) or 780 (Ti)

Cause that i3 is realy old, it has slow core´s. compaired to todays cpu´s.

It will definitely hold those gpu´s back in games like BF4, Watchdogs, Metro and such.

what if i upgrade my i3 to i7 870k and buy gtx 760 will bottleneck persist? just a sample.

what motherboard do you have or want 

i don't know yet. that's why i'm here asking for advice a expertise request.  B)

Well with a midrange card you would be fine. i dont think that upgrading to that old i7 would be worth it.

Unless you could finde one for realy cheap.

 

in cpu bound games it will help offcourse, but still, you realy could use a cpu + mobo upgrade aswell in my opinnion.

i do find a i7 870 and its overused about $100 is it okay? 

also i7 875k worth $150. what do you think? should I buy or not, which of the two?
