Hey guys,
Got an unopened Asus GTX 670 DCU II (non-top). The seller proposed me to get one of his 3 GTX 690s. Either Zotac, Gigabyte or Asus (Asus being the most expensive and Zotac the cheapest). I am able to return my GTX 670 and pay some extra to get a GTX 690.
Don't know what i should do. I play CoD4, CSS:GO, Crysis 2 and BF3 on a 22inch 60hz monitor.
Mostly CoD4 though.
Here are the two options i am considering:
1/ Keeping my GTX 670 and my Asus 60hz 22inch monitor.
2/ Return my GTX 670 and upgrade it to a GTX 690 aswell as getting the BenQ XL2420T.
Things to consider:
I want a single monitor setup (max 24inch)
I have no intention of getting a surround setup
It will be used for gaming (CoD4 mostly as i play in the competitive scene).
However i would like to know if for option 2 my setup is okay.
i5 2500k currently at 3.3Ghz (stock) with a CM 212 evo.
Asus P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3
Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB @1600MHz
Seasonic X-660 Gold
The GTX 690s available:
Zotac GTX 690
Gigabyte GTX 690
Asus GTX 690
By the way, if anyone has a well explained guide on how to overclock the 2500k to above 4GHz without taking any risks on my motherboard, would be really nice. Some homemade guide would be nice aswell, but clear advises please.
Cheers
