Posted April 21, 2015 An ssd boot drive would be a great choice, u could also look at changing that slightly sketch PSU and upgrading ur graphics card, or even adding another 760 via sli.

Posted April 21, 2015 what's wrong with my PSU?For dual gtx 760s, 650 watts is cutting it a but close and I think it is a bronze, I'm sure it works fine, but in my case I think I have actually hit max wattage on mine before, or close to it with some overclocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 21, 2015 What's wrong with my PSU?The forum only seems to like EVGA, Seasonic, and [sometimes] Corsair power supplies. I think you'd appreciate a graphics card upgrade the most. As the guy above said, another 760 or a different model altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly fine with anything, and ur PSU is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reason the forum tends to go to those brands is because they have a good reputation, I recommended a new PSU because I have no clue if it is good or not and if he went SLI that would be cutting it close with even a slight overclock on the GPUs. If it is a good PSU and he is not going SLI then keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 21, 2015 Would't selling my 760 and getting a 970 be better? Depends what you can get for your card. But yes I believe 970 is better than 760 SLI. Only thing I would worry about with the 970 is the 3.5 GB of VRAM and GTA V if you play it, seen some people say that is uses more than 4 gb past 1080p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 21, 2015 Would't selling my 760 and getting a 970 be better? Very very likely. I don't know the specifics enough to compare two 760s to one 970, though. But I like single-card computers more, and it would be better for your power supply too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a non OC CPU? i bought an aio with my first cpu which wasn't unlocked, but it looked nice and when i upgraded later on, i was able to immediately overclock. If aesthetics are important or you plan on upgrading later on and OC-ing, they make some affordable heatsinks, if not, then don't, its merely a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't looked, but I think they're in the price range of a 970. 650 watts will handle an R9 290.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 290x have a look at JayzTwoCents latest video, in the 40's on 1080p max settings, turn them to normal and 60-100 with an average in the 70's. For me personally I would not buy either but that is because I love CUDA. I don't know a ton for gaming mostly for computing and CUDA work.

Basically the vram is not additive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
