What do you want to do with the pc? For cheap I'd go with 750ti.

Hi all

i currently have Club 3d radeon hd 3850 (PCI-E), and MSI P45 Neo

What gpu (cheap) would  you suggest as an upgrade. Note i am upgrading  old  pc.

 

complete specs please?

I agree. We need complete specs. PSU will come into play with this old of a PC. Case even possibly. Full specs would be nice.

Intel Core i7-6700k | 2 X Gigabyte 4GB GTX 970 Overclocked Edition | 16GB (4X4GB) DDR4 2133MHz Corsair Dominator Platinum | MasterCase Pro 5

ASUS Z170 Deluxe Motherboard | 256GB Samsung 840 Pro + Seagate 2TB Storage | Corsair Hydro H80i GT | Windows 10 Pro 64bit | Corsair HX850i

What are your full specs? :)

 

What CPU do you have, how beefy is your Power Supply, what resolution do you play at? 

 

All of these make a pretty big difference as far as what GPU you should get 

 

Ah just saw you add it, I wouldn't get anything better than a 380(x) for that system, Its going to bottleneck it as it is

 

You also might want to add 2 Gigs of ram and bump up to a Core 2 Quad if you can, and overclock it to squeeze as much power as you can as to not bottleneck whatever GPU you add

Then get a 750ti. It won't require any external power an it is perfect for internet things!

how mutch is 750ti?

About a 100 bucks

 

edit- for +/-30 more you can get a 950, which would help with more up to date stuff and a bit more horsepower.

What's the country you live in?

30-40 euro would be a HD 5450. It works fine for browsing internet and stuff. I've used it.
