GTX460 upgrade

[jamief]

I play primarily BF3 (BF4 soon) at 1080p. I've got a i7 920 @ 3.8Ghz, 6GB DDR3 etc. Currently I'm running a GTX460 1GB - would something like a R7 260X 2GB be a significant upgrade? Don't want to spend more than £110 or so.

This is probably your best bet on an upgrade for your budget. A couple of free games with it as well.

Agreed. I am on a 7850 right now performance on bf4 has been great on high settings at 1080p

Thanks mate but I'd probably just buy a new one - OCUK doing the OC edition for £107 this week.

What framerates are you getting ? Seems borderline to me judging by this and this

Nonetheless great suggestion, thinking of getting one for a second build

At that budget what about going down the second hand route.

+1. Walk away from the R7 260X at £120, that 7850 is a much faster card.
