Graphics card to go with an AMD A8-3850 APU

[PureAppleJuice]

Hello all,

My little system is beginning to struggle with running more modern games at decentish graphic settings so I thought it might be time to whack a graphics card in there.

I'm not looking to spend more than £70.00 really. I understand that with the APU you can Crossfire it.

Is it worth me getting a graphics card that can run in tandem with the APU? I understand that there are several. Or should I just get a higher model that is not capable of doing so and just run it the graphics card on its own without crossfire?

TLDR; which graphics card should I get?

Thanks for your help.

you can get a HD 6670 to do the hybrid crossfire

If you can spend a little bit more, maybe a 7770 would give you better performance.

This.

I went with a 7770 when I tried the 6670 in hybrid crossfire as the 6670 was poor.

Thanks guys, I'll take a look.

Which APU is it? AMD recommends a maximum of a 6670 with the top end 6800K - anything higher will be too fast for it to work properly in crossfire. Apparently you can get away with a 7750.

I'd just go for a single higher performing card (like the 7770).

edit: sorry, missed the title. Yeah, get a single card.
