Currently I have a AMD Phenom ll x4 925 and wondering what GPU I should get. I don't mind playing games at low settings it just matters that I get to play it and the current "Gaming Rig" I am using is a crappy $500 Canadian laptop and it has I3 5020U HD5500 and I play GTA 5 on and off, World of Tanks, CS:GO, Rust, Rocket League, League of Legends. I would like to play these games at least at medium settings 30 fps or higher. 

Im mostly on discord now and you can find me on my profile

 

My Build: Xeon 2630L V, RX 560 2gb, 8gb ddr4 1866, EVGA 450BV 

My Laptop #1: i3-5020U, 8gb of DDR3, Intel HD 5500

Rx 560 should be out in a week or two, it sounds like a good choice for you.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

You should have started your post with "Billy Mays here!.."

 

But yeah RX 570 or 560 or even a GTX 1060 if you really want to go there for cuda etc.  Up to you though. :) 

Ok I do get a lot of people saying that to me in games and gtx 1060 is a bit pricy in Canada

Couldn't help saying it, I would imagine you get it alot. :D But as I said either a RX 560 or 570.  Hell even a 1050ti is good enough for 1080p last time I checked.

yeah and a GTX 1060 6gb ranges from $421.99 to $329.99 so its a bit too pricy for mt budget
