Out of the game for quite a while, help needed

[sideshow4069]

Firstly Hi to everyone

Its been a while since i last posted on the forum, mainly due to having young kids who drove me out of my computer room (apparently one of them needed his own room) and spending all my money, computers took a back seat, however rather than looking to build a nice new shiny computer for myself, i'm tasked with building a gaming computer for my oldest son.

It's been a while since a built a computer and am really out of touch with all the new gear, my main issue is graphic cards, i'm on a limited budget and am looking for a decent gaming card for around £100 - £!30.

Any suggestions really would be appreciated.

Hi there.

A 460 will cope quite nicely and will cope with all games with some decent settings.

I like Gigabyte for the UK RMA center should you ever have any issues with the GPU

At that price point the rx460 is the one to go for, will be good for 1080p but dont expect to max out the graphics detail.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x HIS Radeon RX 460 OC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £98.99
• 1 x PowerColor Radeon RX 460 Red Dragon 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £99.95
• 1 x Sapphire Radeon RX 460 Dual X 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £104.99

I'm in. Similar boat. I am going to wait for the 1050/1050ti in the next few weeks to see what that performs like.

I may go for a 460 as well, I'll let this freesync/g-sync sort itself out. Currently have ATI 6950 2GB.

I would wait and see what the price & performance of Nvidia's 1050ti is first. Decide then.
