Posted September 14, 2015 A new graphics card will help a lot i would get an r9 390. If you want my attention, quote meh!

Posted September 14, 2015 I suggest getting an R9 390, and if you play a lot of higher end or commercial games get one with 4GB VRAM since a lot of these games are really starting to utilize it.Also, if you have the extra money, I suggest you getting an SSD if you care about how fast your operating system and main programs load everything. I just got one myself and it's probably the best money spent in my whole rig. It's way faster than an HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the r9 390? isn't it expensive 350/400$ ? i read all about the internet that the gtx-960 is not good for that price... but it cost just 200/250 is like what i want to spend for my gpu right now... what ssd do u suggest?

Posted September 14, 2015 like i said, i got 350$ and i want to improve my pc with that money........... Oh... Whoops my bad .I'd go for a i5-4690k Z97 Motherboard and a BeQuiet! Pure Rock After this save up about $200-$220 for a Sapphire Nitro r9 380 and your build will be golden. The FX6 will hold back anything much better then an R9 270x or 280, oh and 4GBs of ram.

(do you know like similar amd cpu that can cost a little bit less?) the motherboard i have isnt good enough? About the Gpu... i mostly play league of legends, do u think the nitro r9 380 can provide to me a nice game experience? (for "nice game experience" i mean that the game run pretty much fluently) i already got a cpu cooler (Coolermaster Hyper TX3 EVO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the Gpu... i mostly play league of legends, do u think the nitro r9 380 can provide to me a nice game experience? (for "nice game experience" i mean that the game run pretty much fluently) A 380 can play most games 1080p nearly maxxed out 60FPS.If you wanna ditch overclokcing you can go for a H97 Motherboard and i5-4590 and maybe ditch the cpu cooler. Then get the 4GBs of ram. I5-4590 H97-H81 Motherboard 4GBz lf Ram.

(i think 600 watt should be good) sorry, i dont understand really well the part : "If you wanna ditch overclokcing you can go for a H97 Motherboard and i5-4590 and maybe ditch the cpu cooler" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i think 600 watt should be good) sorry, i dont understand really well the part : "If you wanna ditch overclokcing you can go for a H97 Motherboard and i5-4590 and maybe ditch the cpu cooler" Pretty much saying if you dont wanna overclock.Instead of a i5-4690k z97 motherboard ( which can be a little bit more expesnive ) and a aftermarket cooler ( isnt needed if you arent overclocking ) You can get a i5-4590 H97 board and stick to the stock cooler. 4590 is a locked cpu ( mesnkng cant be overclocked ) and H97 boards arent made for overclocking. Silent Power supply. Make a thread one it, i know BeQuiet! And EVGA offers some somewhat silent power supplies for a great smount of money. i7-6700k Cooling: Deepcool Captain 240EX White GPU: GTX 1080Ti EVGA FTW3 Mobo: AsRock Z170 Extreme4 Case: Phanteks P400s TG Special Black/White PSU: EVGA 850w GQ Ram: 64GB (3200Mhz 16x4 Corsair Vengeance RGB) Storage 1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda 240GBSandisk SSDPlus, 480GB OCZ Trion 150, 1TB Crucial NVMe (Rest of Specs on Profile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im so so so so Sorry for bothering you ,(and i im so thankfull that you are answering me) i already have a cooler which is CoolerMaster Hyper Tx3 EVO, is it good? about the 4590 how much do i lost in term of performance instead of the 4690?

That cooler will be fine, its better then stock cooling. Performsnce wise maybe 2-3FPS. i7-6700k Cooling: Deepcool Captain 240EX White GPU: GTX 1080Ti EVGA FTW3 Mobo: AsRock Z170 Extreme4 Case: Phanteks P400s TG Special Black/White PSU: EVGA 850w GQ Ram: 64GB (3200Mhz 16x4 Corsair Vengeance RGB) Storage 1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda 240GBSandisk SSDPlus, 480GB OCZ Trion 150, 1TB Crucial NVMe (Rest of Specs on Profile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
