So after looking around I think I have decided to go with this Radeon HD 7970 card.: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814150596iGPU is never meant for heavy game. If you want to play game, you need a discrete GPU. The HD7970 you selected should be a good one. With your 500W PSU, it should be enough. The HD7970+A8-3850 is 350W TDP........
It seems like it will fit in my case but my question Is will my power supply be enough? I know it says min 500w, but is that really enough? Also will overheating be an issue? The case i am using does have 3 120mm fans, it also has 2 unused 80mm spots if i need to install more. Is this a smart idea? or am I just out of reach with this case? Any help would be appreciated.
Also after trying out some newer games I was left a bit disappointed , the integrated graphics are great for some older stuff but just isn't enough for newer games.
