I want to upgrade strictly for gaming notably Witcher 3, modded Skyrim. Planning on replacing vid card with (R9 290/ 290x). First, is there that much difference between the R9290 vs R9290x? I know the tech specs, but how much difference will it make in game play?
Also, not ruling out Nvidia, but may be too pricey. Do not want to spend more than 700.00.
Current rig:
MOBO [FONT="]Asus P8Z77-V Pro LGA
RAM [/FONT][FONT="]GSkill Ripjaws 8 gig [/FONT]
CPU [FONT="]I[/FONT][FONT="]ntel core i5 3570k[/FONT] (oc 4.4)
PSU [FONT="]Seasonic x650w Gold
HD[/FONT]'s [FONT="]Plextor M5 Pro 256 gb and [/FONT]WD BLACK 1 TER
I think this set up should be o.k. as is?
Thanks for input,
The Wife
