I have an MSI RADEON HD 7750 in my computer. The problem is, it sucks. I was a graphics card noob back when I bought it and I thought since it was a 7xxx series and had 2GB written in it's title then it must be good right?
Well, the problem is the fact that this is a discount card, about 100 dollars. I'm barely pulling 20 FPS in Bioshock Infinite. Similiar results occur in Witcher 2, Skyrim, and Grand Theft Auto 4. I really can't hope to be ready for the next generation of gaming when I have such poor performance with current-gen games.
So I need some advice. I'm on a budget, and while I could drop $200 if I really have to, I would prefer to save some money. I don't know as much about Crossfire as the rest of you I'm sure, but I was wondering. If I buy another one of these Radeon 7750 cards and put them in my motherboard's second PCI-E x16 2.0 slot, will I get a noticeable performance boost that would at least let me have 60 FPS on medium or would I be wasting my time?
Or is it another problem? If you could recommend me a decent graphics card that would get 60 FPS in Bioshock Infinite that's less than 200 dollars, that would be helpful in case doing a Crossfire would be a bad idea.
Also, my specs:
Motherboard: ASRock 970 EXTREME3 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
Processor: AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W Eight-Core Desktop Processor
RAM: CORSAIR VENGEANCE 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 RAM
2 SATA HARDDRIVES.
I'm new to this forum and computer building in general so any help would be appreciated.
