Hello!

 

I have a GTX650Ti 2GB Palit now I'm asking what would be a direct upgrade from this card it can be a Radeon or Nvidia I really don't care. I dont know how much I'll have after Chistmas around £140 maybe.

 

My Gaming Build 

  • CiT Vantage Gaming Case - I've added a "Cooler Master Slickeflow" fan as an exhaust fan
  • MSI 760GM-P23 
  • 16GB "Team Group Inc" 1333Mhz RAM
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 650Ti 2GB (Palit Microsystems)
  • Standard 1TB Barracuda Hard Drive
  • AMD FX-6100 3.3Ghz - with an "Akasa x4 Processor cooler"
  • Windows 7 64Bit

 

I dont wat to go mental and blow £140 on a card BUT I'd like to water cool my CPU and buy a new PSU probably a modular one because mine over heats at the moment.

 

Thanks!

 

:)

For around £150 you can get a 270X, or a Windforce for £10 more.

That motherboard will not allow large overclocks on your cpu. A GTX 580 would be a good upgrade.

650Ti cannot be SLI'd.

 

I suggest you save up your money for a bigger upgrade IMO. Just OC the 650Ti.

GTX650Ti is non-sli capable and my mobo has only 1 PCI-E 16x Slot.

That's the best option. I bought the 780 and I've been testing the Shadowplay. It's simply amazing.

Even my GTX650Ti is epic for recording BF3. *hasn't got BF4 yet, don't judge*

 

EDIT : Do you get bottleneck with the 6350?

Not from what I can tell. Though i have thought about upgrading to a 9370, but at the moment the 6350 has been doing extremely well for me

I think you should just wait till Maxwell gets released. That's what I'm doing, I want to wait for the new tech.  B)

Nothing worth buying at that price range. Save this year, buy next year. With a bit of luck it will be gpu refresh time and you'll get more for your money.

 

What psu do you have that's overheating?

"G7 Extreme Power PSU". I bought it because my old 500W was VERY hot, but it never overheated, just quite hot. Then i got this 780W one that isn't as hot but overheats. :/

Don't buy anything. For your money you can only get something equivalent to GTX660 and that's just a small upgrade not worth the money. Keep on saving until you have like £250.
