I am buying a new PC and I have already bought a FX 4300 so I wonder which GPU would best suit that CPU.

I am buying the GPU after my birthday (February),so my budget would be around 100€.

I would just like some decent performance (30+FPS) on games like Cities:Skylines,GTA V,FIFA 16 etc on low-medium

And could a R7 260 do the job?

A GTX Turnip

 

 

/jk a R9 270x is ur best bet if theres a bit of wiggle room in the price, otherwise an r9 270, an r7 260 is way to slow

no need for double post, and yes the 260 would fit the bill for you.

Just FYI: It's often the forum being glitchy when people double post. Hopefully this will

improve in IPS4. Anyway, back on topic...

EDIT:

Um,thank you but I didn't double post...

Maybe I did accidentally but not on purpose

I've already merged the threads. But as said, not your fault, forum glitch. I shall

leave you to your GPU discussion then. :)

Please follow your own topic,

I would suggest r7 260(360) or gtx 750

anything from an r9 280 downwards. Sure, a 280 will be bottlenecked, but it will still give you more performance than going with a 270 and spending the extra money on a better cpu. A 260 will do the job.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

So in six months considering the prices going down should i get a r9 270 then?

yes, its better then the 260 and can even run modern games at high/ultra settings with 30/60 fps (depends on what you want xD

I'm aware, it's just that nearly all double posts (from experience) can be prevented by clicking on post and then just waiting. I'm just saying, not trying to cause an argument or anything.
