Hi
I have about £200 to upgrade my system. I use it primarily for gaming. I'm Looking to play Dragon Age Inquisition at the moment.

Please tell me where should I spend the money and what should I buy?

Motherboard = Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5
Processor = Intel core I7 920 @ 2.67GH
Ram = 6GB (3X2GB)
Hard dive 1G Sata
Graphics card = 2X AMD Radeon HD 5800 in crossfire.

Looking at the Specs to run Inquisition its my Graphics cards that is letting me down. Not enough RAM.

Is that Where my bottle neck is?

Thanks for any help.
 
his GPU's are a 5800 range, mine is a Radeon HD 5830.

I have the same setup except a I7 950 and im sticking with this and going to be getting a 970 at some point but they are about £250 to £270.

as speed said, you can get a R9 290 for around that price, cheapest one on OCUK is £210 (without delivery), link to all of them below

the Nvidia 770s are also around that price also

or if you cannot spare anything over £200 you have the following

R9 285 range

Thanks to everyone who responded.

I completely forgot about an SSD. I planed to get one ages ago, but then life happened and I never got one.

I'm going to see if I can scrape up enough for a new card and an SSD.

Thanks again
