What gpu should is use

[ismokebudz]

Want to build a mild gaming rig, just trying to play HotS in max settings and some other steam games. Possibly Starcraft idk, either way this is what I'm looking to use http://pcpartpicker.com/p/QMzR6h I'd like to rune it overclocked as well. What gpu would you use and will this mobo do?

[PlayStation 2]

R7 265?

What is up with that Corsair cooler, you don't need a water cooler for this.

What's your budget?

Get a hyper 212 evo, and get maybe a GTX 950 or 960.

[Aytex]

212 evo cheap reliable

 

dark rock is 10$ more which is 10$ less in preformance from a gpu so go away dark rock fanboys

 

spend more on GPU 

 

a 270x or a 280x, 950

It runs warm. Whoever told you "it runz 99000052525252^oF!!1!1!!!!11" is probably an Intel fanboy.

Granted, most AMD CPUs run warmer than their Intel equivalent, but still. That is EXTREME overkill for that CPU. Get... jesus, you could get away with a Hyper TX3 and get a good overclock on it.

all my friends who have never even owned an AMD product say that.. ;-;

I've had FOUR laptops and a desktop with AMD CPUs.

My laptop DOES get hot playing TF2 but that's that. When doing regular tasks it stays comfortably warm.

My brother's desktop with an FX-4100 has a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus. That thing stays relatively quiet, even in CSGO, hell, even in GTA V.

No, the hyper212evo is a cpu cooler.

[ismokebudz]

So what mobo should I get?

My card has only went over 60* once.

My card has only went over 60* once. 

That's... really impressive for a dual GPU card, even under liquid cooling.

I should actually word that better. I've never noticed it go above 60. Who knows it could be right now ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I got a HP laptop off of ebay for school at one point (its dead now its a piece of crap) it ran around 60* idle LOL

Had an old Toshiba laptop circa 2007. Cooling worked like shit. Replaced the thermal paste and whamo, it worked and it stayed relatively cool. Granted, it still only booted half of the time but eh.
