Hello! I would like to upgrade my old PC to be able to run a game like Battlefield 1 at the highest possible settings with very, very good FPS. My specs are below, what do I need to upgrade? For the GPU I was thinking the new GTX 1080?
GPU: GTX 460 v2 (don’t laugh)
CPU: i5-3570k @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 8.00 GB
Resolution: 1920 x 1080, 60Hz
OS: Windows 10 Pro
Thank you for responding.
Your able to run Star Wars Battlefront -.-
your also able to play Battlefield 1 for sure
Upgrade your video cards .. Your do 
Other than the vid card upgrades your about do for a new PC.
At this point in order to get what you want to run ANY new game at HIGH FPS your going to need some good upgrades and instead of dumping money on the current system you have, personally I would start dumping money into better CPU/MOBO/RAM and recycle the new video card you buy now. and lets not forget SSD
My 2 cents 
I would suggest to wait for the new cards to come out and see what people say about them. Let others “beta test” the cards to see what issues there are, if any with them.
The 1070 is what I’ll be getting probably, then selling my 970 on ebay. You would for sure want to upgrade to at least 16 GB ram as well, the rest sounds good. And maybe an SSD if you don’t already have one.
I have a laptop with nvidea 840m in. Will I be able to play BF1?
I played battlefield 4 smoothly on medium
I currently have an 128 GB SSD but I want a larger one for more games. I’ll look into getting more RAM and I’ll wait a few months after the new GPU release for information.
But my CPU and monitor is fine? I’m assuming that I’ll need a new PSU. I’ll post what I got now when I get home.
Thanks all.
Your cpu is still fine and I don’t think you need a new psu, the 16nm generation of gpu’s that nvidia and
amd will introduce use less power.
I wait for the gtx1070, it will be enough for hd and I’m not planning to go ultra HD at the moment.
nothing wrong with his CPU mate just upgrade the video card to a gtx 970 for good 60fps at 1080p
igree GTX 970 is very god to battlefront and possible to BF1 to
I agree with this statement. You could even go for the 1070 if your budget is a not that much.
I will probably stick with my GTX 970 a bit more.
I’m going to be waiting a few months to let the PC community put the cards to the test before I buy one. The 1070 is looking good but the 1080 is too. Arghh! #PCProblems
Def a new card
DANNY!!!
No but seriously @Vespervin Card, and maybe if you can afford it 16gb of memory.
Good luck!
1080’s start shipping May 27th, 1070’s June 10th.
1080 benchmarks are out already and it beats every card out there right now , need to wait on 1070 benchmarks but will be on par with titan x i assume
Helloooo!!
The ram is less of a priority for now
just get a new card. id say get more ram, but DDR3 is oddly more expensive than DDR 4.
just OC the cpu a tad if it bottlenecks. but it shouldnt.
You should also have a minimum of 120hz monitor with that new gpu…butter
meh. 60 is fine. most people arent going to really need the difference. its a luxury.
It makes a big difference if i go back on 60hz i get motion sickness. I’d give up gaming before returning to anything less than 120hz.
