Hi thanks for the reply. Ic, in this case i will look into the mentioned series.

UPS - I mean the power that i had. (620W) based on my current setup - it shouldn't have any problem right?

Ic, so bascially i can get radeon - RX 470 / 480 series? As previously i am using radeon as well.

Yes, i mean based on my current gpu - what's the cost currently. So at least i know my budget is right.

Thanks

yes 620W is more than enough, but if over 5 years or longer can consider upgrade pc if u want,

yes you can but make sure u remove the old drive den install it, well just for your info : RX 460 is some where equal to that old gpu, RX 470 and 480 is a few tier higher than that old gpu of urs.

cost wise im not sure, since i doubt that u can get it on local market. beside that if u are saying the previously iirc was around maybe 250~300? (of slightly above 300?)

Ic, thanks for the advice. I might try looking at yhe gpu through lazada since they do have some gpu that has discount.

You mentioned that nvidia r more toward OC. Since i don't really OC, i should just get radeon instead. Am i right to say that?

Ic, in this case i should be looking at 470 / 480 series n hopefully it fit within my budget.

At the moment, i dont really keen to do any upgrade as my current cpu seem to be working fine - its the gpu that disappoint me. :( so i intend to get $200-250 to get past another 2-3 yrs before i intend to change a new cpu.

Will look through the webby / lazada n get the right one for my cpu.

Thanks again for the help.

@ZrE0_Cha0s

I was looking at the lazada and notice that this RX 470 from XFX.

http://www.lazada.sg/xfx-radeon-rx-470-4gb-gddr5-true-oc-1226mhz-8400130.html

It's fit within my budget (Slighty higher) - however as the brand is relatively unknown, the price with other 470 cards are cheaper by $50 price range.

This shouldn't be any problem / alert right? Or should I go for well-known brand (In this case I might have to go for 460 / 1050 ti range)

Appreciate your help and anyone can advice. Cheers.

Guys I need help.

Just got the deal from Qoo10 but it's seem that it's very funny.
http://list.qoo10.sg/item/ZOTAC-ZOT...R5-ZOTAC-1060-3GB-DDR5-GRAPHIC-CARD/480895587 (1060 3GB-DDR)

When I install the driver w/ the cd-rom, they couldn't read the hardware so i went to install the hardware into my mobo. When I install it and boot it up - my screen just turn black?? however the system still working as I could hear the window operating system sound.

What's going on with the graphic card? How does one install the graphic card normally?

Currently i am using my mobo built-in graphic it's back to normal when i remove the hardware from my mobo. Any ideas what's happening? :s11::s11: :( Waste my night time to solve this issue.

well 1st things 1st:

Download DDU from this website : http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

extract the file to desktop, run and let it reboot to safe mode. and from the safe mode check which driver is install and remove everything in your pc and shutdown.

2nd :

plug out and in again for your gpu.
boot your pc, press del or f2 (whichever is the the bios button) and go to your graphic option and select PCI-E/PCE as your boot video.
save and exit and let it run to windows desktop.

3rd : make sure u download the latest driver and install.

tata~!!! :s12:

Hi,

don't know what is happening to my pc but it seem work normally..
Anyway may i know should I uninstall the intel graphic as well?

I was thinking of leaving it as alternative incase my graphic card doesn't work. Or should I uninstall it? If yes, how do I install it again?

Same method - asus mobo cd will do?

Giving me headache..straight 3 days sleep late..:s22:

Thanks for the reply. K i will try it out first. Thought it's getting ok but my system doesn't seem to do now. Will try later tonight or tml for thr boot drive. Just the .iso format will do? I manage to download win 7 pro.iso, no need to virtual drive and copy it? Just burn via .iso format to thumbdrive will do?
Thanks again for the help.

K, in this case i will keep the intel n clear the rest. Once done i will input the new graphic card again. Hopefully this time round it work. I will connect my monitor to the new graphic card n proceed from there right? (Last time round - what i did is plug in new hardware without any power plug into it n install fromtl there)

Superflower Golden Green HX600 80+ Gold psu
16GB DDR3 Ram
Win7 Home Premium SP1
Fans: 1 Deepcool Gammaxx 300, 1 120mm Yate Loon

I'm looking to replace my failing R9-280x, what compatibility issues should I look out for?
(especially if my psu has enough wattage for it)

can consider getting GTX 1060 or RX 480. as these 2 are a few tier higher.

next there isn't any compatibility issues as well.
