Hi Guys,

I need to know which games(can i run at 1080p) can i run on my new system.

I am using the stock cooler at the moment.

Want to give this a try without overclocking and then if necessary will overclock to a minor level.

Specs:

 

AMD FX-8350 4.0 GHz
GSkill Sniper F3-1866C9D-16GSR CL9-10-9-28 (8x2 GB)
Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
Corsair RM 750W
Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280X Tri-X 3GB
Corsair Carbide 300R
 
Thanks in advance.

Yup,wasn't sure about OCing..

And games as in GTA V, Assassins Creed ,Saints Row 4, BioShock, Crysis,COD ,Batman,Battfield 4 ,Splinter cell and the likes??

Can i run these games too??

Which Assassin's Creed? :')

Playing a bit of Black Flag on my GTX 970 at 1440p, I was seeing performance swings and huge tearing (despite having adaptive V-Sync on). Unity is even worse.

The AC games have a history of being poorly optimized and ported for PC anyways so it's nothing wrong with the power of your graphics card.

I know there's nothing wrong with my graphics card, I was just implying that even with a powerful graphics card I was seeing quite apparent performance swings.

AC games should be played if you CAN, but it's not like they're the best games out there anyway. For the parkour element, it's actually pretty wooden.

Now Dying Light - That has got the best free running mechanic in a video game I have ever seen!

As long as you have good air flow in the case and dont touch OC youre good with stock cooler on 8350.

Thanks. Will keep that in mind.
