NCC10281982B Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Given that my rig is about 10 years old and thus does not meet the recommended requirements for an upcoming game I want I am parts shopping. I Plan to use my existing GTX 970 in this build but need everything else. I suppose I could get away with recycling the SSD... http://bit.ly/1XdenRz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rokkaholik Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Just Cause 3 has me thinking of a new rig as well... My HD6870 video card is struggling with even medium settings so I was looking at upgrading my video card only. My wife scowled at me when I had shown here the few I was going to go with and then I find out that she ordered me an XFX 390. The flip side had me looking at my current rig in my signature and realizing it's going to be 6 years old. I truly believe it'll be powerful enough for another 4 years, BUT I'm also one that usually rebuilds every 3 or 4 years and is able to SELL used parts to recoup some cash from a new project. I also usually never buy brand spankme new parts and usually opt for ones that are a year old because the "keep up with the Joneses" people save me a lot of money....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waco Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 You can't, I wouldn't even waste the time trying. The 660 is a decent card for dedicated PhysX though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
