GPU upp

[Full_Logicz]

Hello everybody !

I'm upgrading my old pc with a new graphic card.

I have a 1920 x 1200 monitor with 60 mhz refresh rate.

 

It doesn't really matter the power eficiency or the price if it's not an overkill for my monitor.

 

i was thinking about buying a 980 or 970 but it may be too much.

 

I'd like to know your opinion.

 

 THANKS

I have a 970 and it works pretty well at 1080p, it will max any game with a good frame rate

What are your other specs? You saying "old pc" makes me scratch my head. Putting a 980 or 970 into a system with some ancient CPU and DDR2 RAM and some old HDD is a huge waste of money as the GPU will be bottlenecked by the rest of your system.

No sir, the post only said 12 GB of DDR3 before he updated that. So no, not retarded.

 

So, a i7-950. That's an old chip. What are you doing with the system? Gaming? Workstation?

[Full_Logicz]

hardcore gaming on that monitor.

even though it's and old cpu it's pretty good

Get a 970 or a 960. 980 is interesting when you go to higher resolution, but since you're staying on 1080p, those earlier mentioned cards should do the trick.
