Howdy folks,
I have a rather old rig but it still runs like a champ in most games that I frequently play (i7 860 @ 4.2GHz, 16 GB RAM, HD5870 @ 1050/1300, 1TB SSD, 650w Corsair PSU). I know the IvyBridge platform is easily surpassed now days but I'm not ready to shell out another 1500.00 bucks right now. I feel with the clocks I am running on the CPU, a new GPU will bring things back to life. After being on .60 a bit, I really enjoyed the increased frames with higher settings. Going back to .59 is rough.
I was thinking about a R380 4GB. Seems to be the best bang for the buck but I thought I would ask for some other suggestions first. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
Erock
