Upgrade Options

[MikGriff]

Currently have an HD4870 1GB, Golden Sample Jobby, And was wondering what's best to upgrade to? Rest of the system is as follows

Asus P5Q
4GB RAM
E8400 @ 4GHz
Corsair 620W PSU

I wouldn't have a problem paying about £200-£250 for a card if I'm going to see improvements, Playing RIFT at the moment and its showing its age somewhat.

Cheers, Mik.

Well after perusing the forums a bit, I see the Asus GTX 480 is on offer,

Would I have any problems PSU wise with it ?

The PSU will be fine for a 480.

480 or 6950. Choice is yours.

480 or can u afford 6850 xfir?

 

[MikGriff]

Crossfire would mean me having to buy a new motherboard too, So I'm afraid that's out of the question.

Oh. In that case i would go nvidia route
