Intel i7-6700 @3.4GHz
16 gigs o'Ram
Windows 10 Home (Garbage, I want 7 back)
Nvidia GT730.
485w PSU

I don't need anything hardcore or crazy, but I would like to play fortnite and Civ 6 on better graphics. I have no idea where to even start. Last time I bought a video card was when the 9800GT was brand new :icon_mrgreen:


Also quick question. Everytime windows attempts to update, I get the new version of the BSoD, and it will fail to update. How can I fix this or better yet. run win7 again.

Something like a 1050 or 1050TI would be vastly faster than your 730 and is around $150

Im grabbing a GTX 1050 for my new build $130, alot faster than a 730 and its not so bad price wise since they are up to a 1080 already. Clocking in at around $800 for the1080 :banghead:

Sounds good. Whats the difference between all them? Is the GTX better than the GT?

Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Geforce-GDDR5-Graphic-GV-N105TOC-4GD/dp/B01M25X363/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1512587878&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=1050+ti+4gb

Here's this one on Newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=14-125-919. It's alot cheaper but takes longer to ship

I have heard horror stories about newegg and shipping. But for the price I might risk it.

Also, My monitor is going out, I was thinking about just picking up an Asus 26 inch to replace my 10 year old dell LCD
