I have a max £350 budget for my gaming pc. I would like how I could the most performance for the budget I have.

AMD Radeon 6770 graphics card

Thanks for reading!

I've also got windows 8.1 64bit

Hi.


You do know that a 6770 is not a fast GFX card by todays standards?

What PSU is it?

Save a lot of £££ money by overclocking a FX8320 to the same speed as a FX8350,

A much faster GPU.
