Posted March 6, 2015 The R9 270X should be in your price range, though the G3258 will bottleneck it in most AAA titles.

Posted March 6, 2015 @ShawnDare, peenoise lol it all depends on what games you play and if you're planning an upgrade in the near future, with that cpu I'd only recommend a 260, 750ti, 270(x), 960 a 970 would be bottlenecked in AAA titles specially BF4 but if you're planning to upgrade to an i5 in the near future then get a 970, 280(x) |CPU: Intel i7-5960X @ 4.4ghz|MoBo: Asus Rampage V|RAM: 64GB Corsair Dominator Platinum|GPU:2-way SLI Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 980's|SSD:512GB Samsung 850 pro|HDD: 2TB WD Black|PSU: Corsair AX1200i|COOLING: NZXT Kraken x61|SOUNDCARD: Creative SBX ZxR| ^_^ Planned Bedroom Build: Red Phantom [quadro is stuck in customs, still trying to find a cheaper way to buy a highend xeon] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 3258 wasn't bottlenecking my 760's by that much, a single 270x at a moderate clock won't be bottlenecked.

Posted March 6, 2015 My 3258 wasn't bottlenecking my 760's by that much, a single 270x at a moderate clock won't be bottlenecked. Eh, mine was causing major frame drops in a lot of games, AAA and not. That being at 4.6GHz. Wait though, SLI GTX 760s?

I had solid utilization across my GPU's though with no real serious issues. Like I said though I doubt that a 3258 would bottleneck a 270x at stock speeds.

Posted March 6, 2015 What resolution? 1080p I'd say a 270, 280x or 290. 1440p a 970 or 290. 4K // R5 3600 // RTX2080Ti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 7, 2015 GTX 960 is the way to go. A 970 will be bottlenecked to hell and run more like a 960 in almost any new game (I ran a 4.4 GHz G3258 + GTX 970 briefly, so I'm telling you firsthand) and a GTX 750 Ti is a little weak, since there are plenty of games where a 760 (and thus probably a 960 also) isn't bottlenecked too badly by the G3258. AMD is a complete no-go here because their driver overhead overwhelms i3s, much less Pentiums. But with an Nvidia GPU you can even play Crysis 3 on high using half refresh rate adaptive vsync to get a pretty steady 30FPS. Why the i5 over the FX-8350?

If so then it goes as follows: GTX 970: $330sih R9 290: $270ish R9 280X: $230-50ish GTX 960: $200 R9 270X: $140-150ish CPU: G3258 @ 4GHz GPU: Gigabyte GTX 960 OC RAM: 8GB G.Skill DDR3 1600 SSD: Corsair LS 120GB Case: Antec GX500 Mouse: Logitech G402 Keyboard: Razer Blackwidow Headphones: Shure SRH440 Microphone: That Zalman Zm-Mic1 that everyone recommends but noone uses Remember when the R9 280 was the HD 7950?

Posted March 9, 2015 The 270X has mail-in-rebates most of the time; so the 960 may be worth the extra $15 for it's cooling and silent fans.
