>A10
>"CPU"

It's an APU.

I have an AMD FX 6350. Which is a CPU. Then an EVGA GTX 960. Its not a high ball GPU but definitely gets the job done. But then again, I'm not a gamer to begin with really.

>>54486489

Get literally any dedicated graphics card over $150
>>
>>54486565
im not either honestly i just like civ and heard of Stellaris recently. so if i bought a gtx 760 would i be underdoing it or just fucking up completely?
>>
>>54486592
just get a 7870k, it'll play pretty much everything.

on its own?

>>54486586
Hell even anything over $100 should be fine as long as he is not trying to be autistic about running everything at 60 FPS
>>
>>54486630
It'll cover you enough for any games at 1080
>>
>>54486640
i guess ill namefag for this thread,

i can play the Civ v game at medium settings on the 5800k alone without too many problems.
>>
>>54486660
yea im not super hyper 4k material yet. just dont want it to look shitty. and i guess ill say its using a 42inch tv for monitor, so im kind of used to weird scaling & shit
>>
>>54486662
civ 5 is not a very challenging game. As long as you buy something decent with a good chunk of VRAM you should be able to run new games well for the next 2-4 years

its not but the 5800k has trouble on large scale maps. do i even consider crossfire options or dual graphics or whatever they call it?
>>
>>54486738
cross fire is a kike ploy to sell more units. If you use reddit /r/buildapc should have good links to sales and shit

Ok one last bump from me,

im getting "buy anything decent and ill be good" and "youre dumb for buying a 5800k"...about right?
>>
>>54486565
Why do you have an enthusiast GPU if you aren't a gamer? Do you do 3D work?
>>
>>54486856

I don't know about Stellaris, but I've got an Athlon 860k and an R7 250X, and I can run GTA V at around 45-60fps 1080p. It's only somewhat above normal settings, but it still looks pretty good. For comparison's sake, an Athlon 860k is basically just the CPU portion of a 7850k APU, and the GPU I have is similar, but faster thanks to it having dedicated GDDR5 memory.

>>54487447
I would be pleasantly surprised.
>>
>>54487304
about right. I tried to run a 290x with my 5800k and the bottleneck was awful. things will run fine but i was seeing up to about a 30% drop in performance depending on the title. but with a 7870 i didnt really see a drop. anything in themid range should be fine, it just depends on your budget.

Fuck off back to /k/ or /pol/ or whatever you came from.
