Looking to upgrade my graphics card and psu.

Current system is HP p6360uk
i7 860 Lynnfield 2.8ghz
7613 Iona motherboard
6gb ram
HD5450 1Gb graphics card
300watt psu

Graphics card I am looking at will be either R7 250/260 2Gb

Psu will be Corsair modular cx500m

Mainly playing games such as Dirt2 and Dirt3 . Dirt2 plays ok at moment, Dirt3 however only runs at very low detail.

Any advice welcome, thanks in advance!

Hi,

 

The AMD R7 250 or 260 depending on the make and model will have sufficient performance to run Dirt 2 and Dirt 3.  The Corsair CX500m is a good choice.

HP Envy 17", i7-8550u,16GB, 512GB NVMe, 4K screen, Windows 11 x64
