Hello, my PC built is 5 years old now, all I have added to it is a new PSU and extra RAM! I recently bought Radeon R9 290, but it was faulty and I had to send it back! I wanted to what could be the optimal GPU for my PC, Im willing to spend about 350 euros! Im planning to buy a new PC later, but for now I want to have the most out of my old PC!
Here is the site I will buy my GPU: Graphics Cards (PCI-Ex)
So you've bought an R9 290 and pair it with Athlon II X4? You pretty made a mistake with choosing a GPU there.
Any graphics cards will work with your motherboard as long as you have a PCI-Express X16 slot on your motherboard and be sure the graphics card that you'll choose won't be a bottleneck with the CPU or GPU and vise versa.
And the best bet is the
MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti, 2GB, GDDR5, Twin Frozr IV OC
MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti, 2GB, GDDR5, Twin Frozr IV OC
He`s planning to buy a new pc soon, so it`s not a terrible choice, although, your choice is a good one for the here and now
