Hi all,
Gaming this morning has brought an end to my long lived graphics card with a sudden pop and a blue screen of death. After messing around with my other units, I’m 99% sure it’s the graphics card, so I’m in the market for a new one.
Computer specifications are below:
Intel Core i7-3770 @ 3.40GHz
4GB RAM
Windows 10
AMD Radeon HD 7700 series (the broken one)
Need some recommendations for a new graphics card. Also a couple of additional questions - I can buy an extra batch of ram if this is the limiting factor on a decent card - is this worth doing? And what’s the point at which it becomes cheaper to buy a new pc? Any recommendations? I’m looking to get a decent card so not averse to spending a few hundred, but obviously at some point it becomes more viable to just buy a new PC. Is it a worthwhile investment just buying a new machine for say £600-800? Or is it better to just continually upgrade what I have?
Computers used for gaming quite a lot but not many massive games requirement wise - EU4, CK3, World of Warcraft and Football Manager mostly. Not into the likes of COD that would be the big graphics chewers.
Thanks
