So currently i use my iGPU overclocked and use a 2k (1440p) Monitor to play games.

 

I wondering will it be better to use a R250/R260 in Crossfire with my iGPU or get a better GPU but not that much more expensive. Maybe £200/250 including a PSU

 

If you recomend please use Overclockers.co.uk or Amazon.co.uk

Because my iGPU is Overclocked and my MB allows for another 30% performance boost lol. And people dont realise how Good the 7850k is if used properly :P 

HOW did you play games at 1440p on the integrated graphics it can barely play 1080p smoothly grab a new GPU I would of said 970 but you need a PSU as well. You could try picking up a 770 if they're still selling.

Even overclocked it still doesn't get 40-60 FPS consistent at decent settings 1080p. I know one of the companies had a reference 780 for £220 try looking for that.

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it
