gpu What's the best GPU for my build?

[KJ4]

I am looking for the best possible GPU to get without it bottlenecking my CPU. What would you recommend? I have £150 to spend.

Here's my build:

EVGA 80+ PSU

AMD Athlon 860K

Rosewill SRM-01 Case

Gigabyte F2A68HM-HD2 Motherboard

Corsair Vengance 2133MHz DDR3 RAM

Please change your sig bro. It's "could've" not "could of".

R9 380 4GB. Should be doable.

I think a lot of people have been saying it will bottleneck the CPU though.

It won't.

What would you think would be better? A GTX 960 or the R9 380?

The 380 tends to outperform it by 15% in most games.

It's fine. The 860K is more than capable of feeding the 380

Thanks, and what about the 430W PSU, would that be fine for the system or would I have to go for a different GPU that requires less power?

You need a new PSU regardless of the GPU. Not cause of wattage but cause EVGA W1 are terrible
