How well will this pc do?

[ZecronClaw]

So ive been messing around trying to build a pc. (picking parts, not bought em)

so ive build a budget one (already had GPU and PowerSupply, so could spend more money on the rest)

So my question is: how well will this play BAttleField 4/Hardline

 

Specs:

CPU: intel Core i3-4130 3.4GHz Dual-Core

Motherboard: MSI B85-G41 PC Mate

Memory: corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3-1333

Storage: WD Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5 7200RPM

GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 560 Ti DC II Top 1GB GDDR5

Power Supply: Corsair CX500M

Are you in the US? Also, how much are you willing to spend?

It will definitely play it, 560 was a good card, but I don't foresee getting over medium at 1080p with respectable frame-rate.  

 

But that machine is well primed for any new GPU if you ever decide to go in that direction.

no im in the netherlands but i picked this parts due to my budget so this is what i can spend.

Go with an Athlon 860k and a R9 270X if it's available there.

i already have the 560 and its still serving me well so unless needed i wont be upgrading my gpu yet

[thatguyyouknow75]

the 560 is kind of an older card and might struggle with modern games at 1080p unless you turn down the textures and quality

K...

 

I guess if that's what you can spend, there's really not much for us to do. The only thing worth mentioning is the mobo. Instead of using a B85 mobo, try using an H81. It'll perform the same, but it tends to be cheaper.

if im going with AMD do i also have to change motherboard?

[RichardsD]

Yes.  

[Imakuni]

For the AMD GPU, no. It'll work just fine.

 

But for the AMD CPU, yes. You'll need to get a compatible mobo.

[NoMooreMercy]

You'll be able to get decent frames @ medium settings I'd imagine.

[ZecronClaw]

alright thank you guys, i know enough know

[themaniac]

i wouldn't change to amd because there is an upgrade path with the i3 to an i5 or i7

yhea figured that out im only changingto an H81 mobo instead of B85
