Computer building need tip.

Post by FreshWater »

Trying to build computer but don't know if the processor I have and graphics card is good. My processor is amd fx 8350 and my graphics card is a gtx 960 are they good? If they aren't then tell me some that are good but under 200$ Mostly for big games like gta v or fall out 4.

I'm not a AMD person but i know there will not be any bottle necking. So i guess your okay.

You can get a GTX 1060 if you spend a little over $200 on your GPU..

I honestly wouldnt say updating from 960 is worth updating to 1060, sure 1060 is better, but 960 can still run pretty much any high end game with high quality settings.

Or just overclock your 960.
