Computer Question (Graphics Card)?
I'm in need of a new Graphics Card for my computer trying to play GW2 and the FPS is so unbearably low. So I was looking at the Sapphire Radeon HD 6850. I know it's not the best but my budget isn't too high. So I'm not very Computer savvy so would this be able to push out higher FPS on medium to high setting?
Like I said... I'm not a computer savvy person I've just been told it's my graphics card thats the problem. So here's my specs if it's something else please let me know Greatly appreciated!
Processor AMD Phenom(tm) 9100e Quad-Core Processor
Memory (RAM) 8.00 GB
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6570
Gaming graphics 4863 MB Total available graphics memory
Primary hard disk 537GB Free (596GB Total)

Yea that gpu is significantly more poweful than your current one. This card is plenty for what you want to do. However I fear that your cpu will botleneck a 6850. Also your power supply (psu) must be 500 watts or more for the new card.

It all depends, your problem may not necessarily be graphics it could be different specs. You also have to take into consideration if your GPU can handle that kind of card, but if it is graphics and it can handle it it probably wouldnt hurt
