Dear All,

I'm currently running an old 3870

System specs are -->>

Would like to know which is a good card to buy without bottleneck. The only game i play is minecraft but running it on high settings is lagging on my current setup.

Thanks

Bot sure whether it will bottleneck but i guess you can try 7750.

Hi there,
Sorry for the late reply. My budget is roughly around $300, not willing to spend a lot on upgrading. Will 7870 be an overkill for my old amd cpu?
Thanks

Bottleneck is a severely abused word hehe.Your 955 is one the best amd chips out there in its time.Unless you downclock it to 1.5 ghz or something,the 7870 will be fine.

Okay even now hehe. The 8150fx is rubbish core to core in comparison to your chip. Anyway enjoy on your New gpu.
