Hi all,
I've been out of the loop for a good few years now, maybe 4 or 5 years. I've recently started playing a few games again and just purchased BF4 and it seems my 5870 is showing its age so I'm in need of a not too expensive upgrade.
I game at 1920x1200 and the 1GB of Vram is definitely struggling with new titles. My i5 750 is at stock and not overclocked, I don't really want to be buy all new setup so I could do with something that wont be bottlenecked by this.
As I said I've been out of the loop so I don't know what's best in terms of AMD or Nvidia I'm not fussed about either as long as it will work.
Ive looked at this https://www.overclockers.co.uk/xfx-radeon-r9-380-dd-dual-fan-4096mb-gddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-r9-380p-4df5-gx-228-xf.html
I know my Antec 300 is quite a small case, but it fits a 5870 in ok and the new cards don't look that much bigger. Also I could sell my 5870 to get some money back but i don't know if there worth much now?
any help is appreciated thanks
