Can't amend order to the card I'm looking for.

[VintageElise]

Hey!

After posting my specs in the 'New Member' thread, I was advised to change my graphics card. I go to the Amend order page to change my order but the card I'm looking to upgrade to isn't there. Any ideas? ( I would phone but I'm in work tomorrow and don't have the patience to wait until Monday. )

FYI: Looking to upgrade to a GTX 560 Ti or a 570. Depending on the price and which one is better value for money.

have you gone intel or amd?

Which option did you select after choosing your choice of cpu?

Current order:

COOLERMASTER ELITE 310 BLUE CASE
Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™i5-2500 Quad Core (3.30GHz, 6MB Cache) + HD Graphics
Motherboard ASUS® P8H67-M: M-ATX, DDR3, USB 2.0, SATA 6.0Gb/s, CrossFireX™
Memory (RAM) 8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB)
Graphics Card 2GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 560 - 2 DVI,HDMI,VGA - 3D Vision Ready

But the highest NVIDIA card I can choose is that one.

Ok mate, the problem is that the motherboard may not be able to utilise anything higher.

If you click here http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/intel-computers, there's different options, you should click top spec 2nd gen core computers.

When did you place your order? You will need to call pcs to make the amendments, including a change of motherboard. I'd call as soon as you can mate.

Cheers. I have a small 15 minute gap where I can phone them before work. (I start at 9:15-9:30).

Since I have you here, would you recomend the 560 Ti or the 570?

 

[tom_gr7]

you could go in the middle, the 560ti 448core is a very good card! ya get bf3 with it too.

ofcourse the 570 is better.

This setup costs £947 and is going to give you excellent levels of pc gaming. I dont know of your budget, but i'd certainly look for something along these lines.

Unfortunately, they couldn't change my motherboard over the phone so I've had to cancel my order.

Will wait until the funds get re-funded and order again with a better Mobo.

Guy on the phone was great though.

Well, better to wait and get a better pc ! Shame about the order but it will be worth it. Post a spec in check this spec and we will all help you!
