Hello, I'm losing my mind

[Obione]

By the way Ferelxyx, I've seen the prices at Alternate and the gem you wanted to get that looked like a dual is at the same price as the rest of the 6870s... They're not going to sell any of the others

Don't worry, man, with a "small" investment you'll be able to play those and some more in the coming years…;D

As your fellow users have pointed out, updating the graphics to one of the models they suggest is enough, since the one you have is low-end and quite weak for gaming.

You don't have a bad computer, if you wanted it for gaming it's unbalanced, but it allows you to fix it.
The memory modules can be upgraded to 1600 MHz, but if you don't have experience don't worry you won't notice much at 1333 MHz.

Best regards.

+1 to the colleagues, apart from that a pretty good investment in the medium term would be to renew the motherboard for a slightly better one, but what comes to moving games is more than enough, with a current graphics card you have enough.

Greetings

It's a modest H55, without OC the memory will go to 1333MHz.

That's why I tell you not to worry about not being able to overclock it, it's not about that.
And we agree that it won't be a gaming powerhouse, but with the graphics card you'll be able to enjoy your good games.

Best regards.

The micro runs fine for 1080p, it's up to the source to keep up (and I don't think it will be a problem with the power either) and with a decent graphics card, you can run nicluso for miles with demanding games.

I bought this one at a store next to my house for 180 euros

Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 OC 1GB GDDR5 GV-R687OC-1GD Graphics Card

[Obione]

Aah. Well, that's what they cost, about 170 euros + shipping. That's why I say, if the Sapphire that in other stores is at 140€ costs about 160 euros, you tell me if it's not worth it for a little more.

Many thanks to everyone, one last thing, if I'm not mistaken the graphics cards you recommend like the gtx 560 and others have a 256k bus and I think I will have the same problem with the motherboard that doesn't support that much bandwidth, could that be?

So I should look at the motherboard and the graphics card?

P.D: I just updated the nvidia drivers and I noticed a notable improvement, but it's true that with this graphics card I can't seem to get close to a directx 11.

Thanks again for your advice

[CNCBCN]

hello, even in the doubtful case that it would become a bottleneck for you, the performance improvement will be noticeable. If, after updating the graphics card, you want to spend more money, change the card, but I don't think it's necessary at first.

[Obione]

Don't worry, your micro is not bad and 1080 is not that important.

[Cid111]

Perfect then, graphics in progress, there's a deal with the gtx 560ti that gives you the batman game for free so I think it will be my next target Yes, my concern was the bottleneck but if the difference is still noticeable then great. Thanks again!
