[aorammer16]

I am using a GTX 660 1.5GB i believe its a oem from acer. i am wondering is a R9 280 good enough for Full High setting on dota 2, LOL, Tera, Blade & soul etc. I dont play FPS game.

i have a gtx 760 and i get 200+ fps max settings on 4k in LoL

so i think it will work

What's you CPU? You'll definitely need a good performing cpu for Tera and Blade and Soul.

That's definitely fine. 4770 and 280 will be an excellent combo.

LOL knew it... But not too worry. This store has a 390 PCS+ for $490 SGD http://www.mynextcomonline.com/powercolor-pcs-r9-390-8gb-gddr5-bundle/

Also you can get a powercolor r9 285 for $292(in that store) which does perform better in games than the 280.

Its a pretty small shop in Sim Lim. Their service might be slower a bit but not too shabby. I already have 2 systems bought from them.

Well depending on the case you buy, the sata cables can be hidden easily most of the time. The cables that are exposed the most are the ones from the PSU. Its not common to find a psu with black and red sleeving but a full black one will be easy to obtain.
