Some questions about current gpu

[stickoman]

Hello, just asking for some advice about current situation.

My current rig (----->) currently has some issues with it's gpu fans, it spins occasionally but usually around 60 ~ 200 rpm ish.

Is it the gpu issue and i should change it? Gpu idle temperature is like 60, when i play Dota 2 it goes to like 100, so i stopped gaming as soon as i noticed.

Should i just get a new gpu since its already out of warranty? (more than 3 years already) and if so, which kind should i get? i have a budget of around 400 for the gpu.

Your usage only on dota? If yes a gtx 750 is enough ba. If playing other intensive graphic games, top up abit more get gtx 970

i intend on playing other games on max settings, so maybe a 970 is fine. is the psu ok for the 970? or do i need to upgrade other parts of my current rig?

No need, a gtx970 is a perfect upgrade

 

[hengheng220]

ah i see then just take 970 ba, btw your gpu is still good to go~

 

[stickoman]

my gpu is somewhat dead, at least the fans are.

which 970 should i get btw? and how much would it be etc?

 

[hengheng220]

at that budget i guess can get palit which is one of the cheapest 970 in the market. Tradepac:$439
