Greetings,

ive been using this rig for close to 3 years already and recently one of my graphic card died. I'm looking to upgrade my GPU and i've got my eyes on AMD RADEON R9 series or maybe you guys can give me better suggestions.

Budget would be around S$400 and i'm not that familiar with the PSU or what PCI slot thingy, so i was wondering if i would be able to install this GPU to my rig. Thanks in advance.:s12:

i bargain already,

they really give me powerful quote:
AMD 8350 - 275,
Asus MB - M5A97 Pro - 170, lucky i check this, becos this one only 2.0 USB, I wanted M5A97 Evo 2.0
Corsiar H100i - 165, i remembered somewhere is 150/ 15X
PSU - Superflower 600W - 108
Fractual Design Arc Midi 2 - 125
ODD - 21
WD 1TB, Blue - 76
Gigaybte 280x - 485

All in about 1425, after discount they give 1365. I ask this discount is from where, then i see the price again. 8350+M5A99X Evo is 440, my processor they count separately.

GPU told me entire Sim Lim no stock, which i didn't check. So distributor told them, no more discount for this card. Eventually i walk away, 3 mins later i pass by Video Pro, saw the same card for 465. Confirm tio pawn deep deep...

Maybe too many people today, the way they do today is no see, and just wack. Hopefully a newbie would be caught. For newbies, I really recommend you know your stuff before you engage. Always have a 2nd back up plan to know where you can pull your stocks if they play this type of stunt...:s13:
