Posted March 14, 2017 I love my little rx 460, gigabyte windforce oc edition. I even spent the extra 10 bucks for 2 more gigs of ram, but I know better than anyone that this solution won't hold long. Anybody have suggestions for a budget upgrade? I know ebay always has some nice deals on r9 nitros, but I'm not sure on how big of an upgrade that really is.

Posted March 14, 2017 If you're looking to upgrade you can probably get something like a 970 or 390/x for $130-$150 or so on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-970-4GB-GDDR5-PCI-Express-3-0-04G-P4-3979-KB-/302245438480?hash=item465f3b6410:g:kEsAAOSwhQhYxeX1 http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSI-390X-GAMING-OC-Edition-8GB-R9-Video-Card-MINT-Condition-/282394577070?hash=item41c00748ae:g:wKcAAOSwB-1Yx3c- If you can get that 390x it's actually a pretty good deal. If you want more there's an r9 fury for $200 which is a really good deal though it will probably sell for more. They go new for around $270 or so. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sapphire-Radeon-NITRO-R9-Fury-OC-4GB-AMD-/122397058402?hash=item1c7f6ee562:g:P8wAAOSwax5Yxzph Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied!
