Hey Guys,

 

I only play P3D

 

I just want your guys opinion as I don't know what should I upgrade,

 

I have i5 6600k that oc to 4.4ghz, I have MSI GTX 970 4GB x2Amour Edition, with 16GB DDR Ram,

 

My budget is very low at the moment,  Should upgrade the processor to I7 7700 or the graphics card first,

 

Thank you

 

 

 

 

 

Hi,

would I be in your shoes, with a limited budget that allows updating only one component, then I would look for a graphics card that would better match the level of your CPU. Try a GPU in the range of an nVidia GTX 1060 or similar. If this would exceed your budget then you would need to look for a 1050 chip or for other options from AMD.

In any case you need to verify the power requirements of the new desired GPU and if your PC setup can fulfill them.

You may want to check this site for benchmark comparisons between graphics cards: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/

Good luck,
Frank

Added a hint.

GPU upgrade would be the one, however don't bother for anything less than a 1070.  The 1050 that mdata recommends would actually be a downgrade on your 970

I agree don't get anything bellow a 1070 for P3dv4. Just save up a little more. Josh

agree, ok 1060 6gb is ok if you run 1920x1080 it match your cpu on that frq  up to 4.8ghz , with any higher res the 1070 is the minimum
