Depending on whether the rest of your rig can cut it 980ti 1070 or 1080 depending on the price.

1440 wise you could go 1070 £420 for FE or R9 390 or R9 390X the 390 is £[email protected] and the 390X is £249.99. For RX 480 the Sapphire nitro is coming out in a couple of weeks priced at £249.99 but I would wait to see the reviews first to see if its 1440 capable.

I have a Sapphire R9 290X Vapor X 4GB and I game at 1440p with no issues in current games i.e. DOOM GTA5 etc

EDIT: Change that PSU ASAP OCZ are known for popping and taking your components with it

Seasonic, EVGA G2 series, Superflower or Corsair

, My personal preference is the Superflower

ok thanks 750 or 850?

Tolemac · #8 02-07-16, 03:19 PM

For one Graphics card 750w is ample for 2 at least 850 but it depends on the TDP of the cards you are using

. I have a Superflower Leadex 750W in my rig although I could have gone 650 but I like the extra headroom

ROGRevolution · #9 02-07-16, 03:45 PM

tolemac for 2 480 or 2 fury 850 is ideal right?

Tolemac · #10 02-07-16, 04:06 PM

It is but I would recommend going with one more powerful card as crossfire/sli can have issues in games ie not being supported by the Devs

I am currently in the market to upgrade my graphics card and it looks like I will be buying Nvidia this time round i'll see on Tuesday but the 1070 is winning it for me at 1440P atm.
