Think it's time for a new video card brehs. Lately the new games like MKX Battlefield Hardline and GTA V are all stuttering during gameplay. Also seems like my current graphics card won't even be able to run the new Batman on minimum settings :scust:

This is my build now


Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770K CPU @ 3.50GHz
Video Card 1 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti
Video Card 2 Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600
Memory 8.1 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit

Put me on game to what i need for my shyt to run the games in the near future at a decent level.

Also anyone know of any deals on harddrives?? My 750gb hard drive is looking :flabbynsick:

That's a great CPU. Is this a pre-built computer (Dell, HP)? What size power supply do you have?

My cousin built it. I don't know shyt about parts. I just told him i have 700(not including montior). Build me something nice. This what he got for me.

How do i check my power supply?? Lol im ass at all this

But yea im a bit confused myself as to why my rig not running these games well. My cousin said it should be fine to run this games at a playable level at least on minimum settings. But GTA V and MKX both are skipping and choppy when i run it. Any tips??

Your GPU needs to be updated, Seems your cuzzo spent too much on your CPU and not enough on your GPU.

You can take off the side of your computer case and you should be able to see the wattage of the power supply on the power supply itself. It will probably show the model number too. This will be handy to know if you have a decent power supply brand. If it's solid, you can probably get a GTX 970 and be set for a while

so if the GTX 970 is the top of the line model or most popular what is the previous top card?

I cant pay $350 for a video card
"top of the line" is the Titan X. then the 980, and then the 970

there's kind a big gap between the 960 and the 970, and they haven't announced a 960ti yet

i just started using my GTX 970 and it's amazing.
i'm playing GTA V at 1080p with all the settings maxed out and the benchmark has me at an average of just under 60fps.

Why do you need three monitors? What do you look at while the game is running on 1?

Or do you run the game on all three?

But then you'd have to run it in super widescreen for it to make sense

Or are they all one on top of the other?

Or do you just play 3 games at the same time?

This doesn't make sense

:mindblown:
