Which Radeon to select for my FX-6300 to avoid bottleneck

Post by m5000 »

Hi,

I'm in the middle of assembling a new PC and so far I've got AMD FX-6300 and the Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 mobo. I'm planning 8GB RAM. I'm going to use my comp for work and playing games.

So, I was wondering which Radeon to choose so that it won't get bottlenecked by my FX-6300. You know something that will be good enough but at the same time not too good to be wasteful.

I was rather thinking of one of the 77xx or 78xx series as 79xx are a little too expensive for me. However, if you think that 79xx wouldn't get bottlenecked by the fx-6300, please say so and suggest something - I may change my mind.

Thanks
