this is my current spec
COOLERMASTER HAF 912 PLUS MID TOWER GAMING CASE
Intel® Core™i5-2500 Quad Core (3.30GHz, 6MB Cache) + HD Graphics
ASUS® P8P67 (NEW REV 3.0): USB 3.0, SATA 6.0GB/s, CrossFireX™
4GB KINGSTON HYPER-X SPECIAL EDITION GREY - DDR3 1600MHz (2 x 2GB KIT)
1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTS 450 - 2 DVI,HDMI,VGA - DX® 11, 3D Vision Ready
640GB WD CAVIAR BLACK WD6402AAEX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64MB CACHE (7200rpm)
ive looked at a few reviews and the radeon 6870 seems a good card to step up from an nvidia gts450.can possibly get it around £100 on ebay.its on my upgrades page for £127 and cant stretch to that at the moment.a radeon6850 is supposedly nearly as good as a 6870 but thats not showing as an option on your dropdown list.is that just because you dont sell it or because its not compatible?.can you also tell me what connector my current card uses?.is it a 6 pin connector or something else?
or maybe someone has a better idea for what i could get instead.i just want a really good increase in performance and to be able to play most new games out there even if only on medium settings. at the very most i want to spend £100-120 maximum.
last thing in the memory upgrades it says there is no available upgrade options to me??
thanks everyone
