AMD Radeon HD 7970 / i7-2600K

For the most part, the HD 7970 is still capable of playing modern games, but you would have to reduce settings to sustain those higher framerates. If keeping graphics quality settings closer to ultra or high is important, there are a few options for upgrades. It is worth noting that the HD 7970 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. This combination between HD 7970 and Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.40GHz has less than 8% bottleneck in many games and is perfect match to avoid FPS loss. This combination between HD 7970 and Intel Core i7-2600K @ 3.40GHz is a perfect match to avoid FPS loss. With current 3072 MB RAM, the HD 7970 can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.
