Is my setup good for new games?

[kirksman101]

my setup is     CPU: AMD FX 8320        Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A-D3P       RAM: 16G            Video card:   ASUS GTX 750 TI  power supply: Thermaltake 600W.   I wanted to know if this setup is good for playing GTA V, titanfall, Spin tires, and other games that are demanding like GTA V and be able to run on high settings and be around 60 fps. also I wanted to know if theres a difference between graphics cards such as the EVGA GTX 960 and the ASUS STRIX GTX 960?

Are you getting this or do you already have it?

[asiancorruption]

the 750 ti is significantly weaker than a gtx 960. Also if you're thinking about a 960, consider the R9380 4gb. It will perform 5-10% better than a 960 in a lot of games.

[kirksman101]

I have the setup list but not the gtx 960

[Sauron]

High settings? no. Medium/high? probably.

The R9 380 is most of the time cheaper than the 960 and is either equal to or better than the 960 in most cases.

[kirksman101]

but which r9 380? the ASUS, the radeon, or the sapphire? also is it AMD because I don't care to use amd or nivdia. I'm just very confused to which gpu I should get. also what's the difference if there is any between the ASUS, the Radeon or the Sapphire?

The differences are the cooling and the base/turbo clock speeds.

so which would be the best in all of those categories together or apart?

Well between those 960's, it depends on which EVGA you are looking at.

Most people like the 380 better though. Just look for benchmarks and video reviews.

I would upgrade the CPU to  a FX-8350 and upgrade to the 960. The 960 is a very good card for the money and you can also get more out of the 960 with the FX-8350 than the 8320

Not at all it will run ur games at mid settings only that too few games only

[kirksman101]

I would like a Nvidia video card. but want I'm trying to ask is, what video card ( such as the GTX 960) would have around 60 fps with the games I listed above? and what company I should get it from ( such as ASUS, EVGA, etc)? also what CPU would get the most out of the video card.  

[Nena Trinity]

Why not consider the 380X?

[kirksman101]

well I just don't want to mess with AMD that's all. I just want a nvidia  video card

[kirksman101]

which company should I get the GTX 960 from? should I get it from ASUS, EVGA, etc.  

[kirksman101]

I think I might just gonna go with the MSI GTX 960 4gb or the EVGA GTX 960 SSC 4gb. let me know if going with one of these is a very bad idea.

[Columbo]

That is a good setup for CS:GO and TF2 and perhaps Insurgency. You need a better graphics card at least an AMD 7950 or a Nvidia 760 or 770 or better. I list older cards because you have a junker AMD CPU.

[BertrandH]

Like one of the dude says you should get the 960 it is definitely a value for money card!

neither - the 960 4GB cards are crap since the 128-bit bus bottlenecks like no tomorrow - 960 is about 10-15% slower than a R9 380 and can barely get you 60 fps on medium-high - R9 380 will likely do high 60 fps without any issue and even ultra 60 fps in most games.

AMD cards aren't bombs - they are simple Graphics Accelerators - no sense in wasting 15% power for the sake of a green sticker...

Sapphire 380 Nitro is the best 380 available and better than any 960 even when overclocked.

(btw your not trolling me are you??) I just looked up a vid of the sapphire 380 nitro running GTA V and BF4 and they were around 60 and 40 fps, but the MSI GTX 960 was around 70 and 80 fps. (the MSI GTX 960 fps was from gta v but not for BF4.)

[kirksman101]

should I upgrade my cpu to a intel core i5 or better?
