I don't know if my computers specs are good for beamng. it runs fine but I think it is just not as good as it should be. Here are my specs. I need peoples opintion about this. amd phenom ii x4 830 quad core 2.8gtz xfx radeon hd 6670 core edition 2gb ddr3 6gb ram (max is 16gb) psu is coolermaster 600 watt 1tb hhd with 160gb hhd for extra storage
haha I run an 860W PSU in my rig and its over powered yes but if I ever upgrade I have the ability to now I use to run a 500W PSU the first one of those met its end when I cut a power cable and the second one met its end when I put in a HD3870X2 and then I got the Corsair AX860i and I have been there ever since..
I have got 750w and that is still a lot even though I have a pretty high end system paired with a gtx780ti. I am pretty sure I can run a whole high end system with something like a 780 under 500w.
Well... I have a Corsair AX1200, yes, a 1200W PSU for my single GPU, Ivy bridge system xD Overkill? Yeah, not even gonna argue, with both the GPU and CPU at 100% doesn't even reach 600W hahaha (specs in signature). - - - Updated - - - Sorry... Your graphics card is kinda old and not that good... don't get me wrong, it's not a bad card, but it is pretty outdated :s
I got that card less than 3 months ago. lol What should my next gpu be? I'm sticking with amd since it is an amd system.
nVidia works with AMD.. If you want AMD I would go with an R9 270x as anything above that is way overpriced due to virtucoin. Budget?
Yep, R9 270x - - - Updated - - - Well, it's a mid tier AMD card from the 6000 series, which came out at the end of 2010. It's pretty old, even if you bought it recently... Plus, a 6670 was just average back then! Imagine now...
My budget is less than 100. It can be NVidia or amd. I need your help which one for beamng. Under $100. BTW, Is my cpu, or ram any good?
Under $100 wont get you anything as good as your current GPU let alone better, certainly not anything worth getting at any rate. GPU's aren't cheap.
Seriously. Take that 100 bucks, stick it in a savings account, wait a few months and save some more cash and can budget for something more expensive. 100 dollars is not enough to upgrade your system in a way that is really worth it. You might be able to get a new CPU or whatever, but I wouldn't bother. Look into getting a decent cooler, you already have a decent power supply, throw the 2 together and you can probably get a pretty decent overclock on that phenom.
I have a locked phenom 830 so I cant overclock. Should I get another cpu or stick with getting another gpu? BTW What about NVidia gtx 560 ti?
Ok what is the BEST gpu for around 150 to 200? Also Is my cpu good? is my ram good? - - - Updated - - - How much should I save? and which gpu will you recommend?
CPU without over clock isn't great. More ram would just be bragging rights though. GPU wise I swear by nvidia only. Model 60 or above, 6xx or 7xx series. 560 falls outside that bracket and is a discontinued product replaced by 660 which in turn has been replaced by 760. Nothing else is really worth getting (except AMD equivs perhaps, but I refuse to touch) as an upgrade from your existing gpu and they are well outside your price range. Cpu shouldn't be locked, its hardly cutting edge but get some GHz on it and its perfectly capable. Upgrade is out of budget. Most peoples RAM usage is within 6gb. You don't mention ram clock speed but for the most part the clock speed for ram doesn't make a difference. 8gb would be nice but not necessary. Having more ram than you need does not boost speed in any way, it only benefits you if you didn't have enough before. One hundred bucks on that machine will not get you anywhere.
