I'm primarily a console gamer, but only dabble with PC gaming every once in a while. The upside of PC gaming is you can quickly change between doing work, social networking, RUclips etc and just jump straight into a game. But you're right, when it comes to finance consoles make more sense.
Sandbox/open world games like GTA 4, Assassin's Creed and Boarderlands are pretty demanding. The best thing you can do to make things work smoother under the graphics settings is to dial down the resolution and/or texture detail. With PC games you should play around with the graphics settings for a while to find out what your rig can handle and what frame rate you're comfortable playing with.
I would think so, WOW is meant to be played with most machines and I've tried this card with games like Skyrim, Saints Row and Battlefield 3 and they all run great at 1920x1080 high-highest settings. It's a cheap card that can be used in any cheap office rig and can play almost anything.
Yes! I don't know what to tell you. I use "Fraps" to determine my fps, then I went to the video options to make sure I wasn't ball shitting. It was on high settings and the fps bounced around between 40 and 60 depending on what was going on "on screen".
Provided you have at least a 300w PSU, you may have to lower the resolution depending on how smooth you want the games to run. The A6 3670 is most comparable to a core i3 so that might be your biggest problem. The games will definitely run though, MW3 and Mass Effect 3 are especially well optimized for PCs. But to answer your question, yes. You should be able to run these games fine with your set up.
Because visual particle effects put more work on the GPU. It didn't lag at all when I was recording, I'm sure it was because of the recording software I used (FRAPS)
It wont run Skyrim on ultra with a decent framerate (But it will on medium graphical settings, no problem). But you have a nice set up that can handle more than this budget card, I'd go for a better graphics card if you can. But to answer your question, yes! It will run MW3 even better than on the machine this video was tested on.
I'd say anywhere between 30-50 frames. The AMD FX-8120 is a nice CPU and 4GB ram should be fine. It all depends what you're playing. I usually get 40 frames (give or take 5 frames) from games like MW3 and Borderlands 2, but games like Street Fighter X tekken benchmark at 70 frames no problem, Valve games all run great too. You could use AA and AF too with only a very small frame loss.
It is a good card, when testing it handles anything I can throw at it, 1920 x 1080 on high settings at between 50 - 100 fps. This video doesn't do it justice as performance is reduced when recording (you lose about 20 frames), it ran a lot smoother when I was actually playing/recording it.
The fx4170 is compared most directly with a Corei3. This is playing on a Corei5, plus I lose frames in this video for using Fraps to record and editing on an ancient version of Pinnacle Studio. It ran silky smooth while I was playing it.
Yeah, that's a nice rig. I'm sure it can handle any game you try to play on it. Don't let PC elitists tell you otherwise, that's a solid set up for this generation of gaming. I have less ram than you and only the ddr3 version of the HD6670 and can play anything I want.
Yes, but it depends on what resolution you're running it at. It handles Skyrim on high (not ultra) at 1920 X 1080 at 50 fps so It definitely can handle WarCraft.
Maybe with heavily reduced graphical and resolution setting. The eMachines T3604 is a bit of a problem though. And your RAM is low. I'd use at least 4 GB RAM. It should run, but your other components (CPU RAM etc) will hold back what the 6670 has to offer.
You should be ok with that CPU it's only a few years old. I have Borderlands setting set to 1366x768, make sure you have V Sync off, No/low physx effects and lock the frame rate at 50. I have another video with borderlands footage on the HD6670.
No, I just tested my settings just to make sure. I had 50-60 frames with 1280x768 - 60htz all video settings on high with 16x Anistropic. Just with a Corei5 and 6 gigs of ram, Purred like a kitten.
It's good to have a fairly decent processor along with 4 - 6 GB ram. Graphics card alone wont determine performance. Something's holding you back, an old CPU?, low ram? Programs you've left running in the background (like Firefox or Photoshop) are your drivers up to date etc. I'm no expert, there are plenty of AMD based forums that would help you pin-point your problem.
It could be your CPU (processor). Core i5 and i7 should be what you're using for this generation of games, quad-core. If the card still runs, even if it's slow, it's not faulty, when a card fails you'll know about it. but you might need to update your drivers and make sure there are no background processes that are hogging your system.
Win 7 - 64 Bit. But when it comes to games, 32 bit or 64 bit operating systems haven't made much difference. More emphasis should be put on GPU and CPU.
Yeah, it's what's called a "PC Bottlekneck" (Google it). Your graphics card is more than capable, but your RAM and CPU are slowing it down/not keeping up. This generation of games usually aim for quad core CPU's and at least 4gb ram.
Yeah im got 4GB of RAM and problay gonna make that 8 in the future. And im getting a 500W PSU. Also i got a intel dual core pentium 3.2ghz so it should be fine
ya you are right i have a pentium dual dual core with 3 gb ram :( and ac of 230 volt BUT I CLOSE ALL RUNNING PROGRAMS SET PRIORITY HIGH AND ADJUST FOR BEST PERFORMANCE!

i got the card few days ago,its asus radeon hd 6670 2gb and its kinda slow somehow,even my older radeon was faster. i got 4gb of ram too. Boarderlands 2 is pretty much unplayable,and other games loading time is way too long. Could the card be foulty or something?
plsss help me while playing gta 4 when i am in house or in some place inside a building my game runs at nearly 100 fps but as soon as i get out of safe house or buildings my game lags why???
while playing sometimes my gta4 lag as soon as it hapeens i lower my resolution to 800x600 still it lags WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?? AND I have same graphic what must be my settings for FAR CRY 3
Just watched a little of it back through. Is running smooth as a ... something smooth. Nice work!
Thanks for the heads up, you're right. RUclips apparently "made changes to make this video smoother" overnight, I've chosen to "undo" them...

Yes. That's a substantial upgrade. As long as your 300w psu is fairly modern it should be fine. Definitely get a second opinion though.

Yes, but it depends on what resolution you're running it at. It handles Skyrim on high (not ultra) at 1920 X 1080 at 50 fps so It definitely can handle WarCraft.
I love the feeling of reloading. I know it's not necessary but it's a habit ^_^
It's decent, very cheap, quiet and reliable. Just make sure you have at least 4GB Ram, 300W PSU and at very least a dual core cpu or quad core.
Yes, AMD's Bulldozer, should be more than competent with the 6670. This video was running on a 3.00GHz, quad core i5, so you should be fine.
Maybe with heavily reduced graphical and resolution setting. The eMachines T3604 is a bit of a problem though. And your RAM is low. I'd use at least 4 GB RAM. It should run, but your other components (CPU RAM etc) will hold back what the 6670 has to offer.

Thats the one im gettin soon
Combine it with an APU and it's supposedly 125% better, or so AMD says.
Would be nice to see a difference video.
In my opinion the 7750 is the better card. But for a lower end machine (dual core i3 or equivalent e.g) the 6670 is great, and it's cheap.
HD 7790 maybe? It's almost twice the price of a HD 6670 but your machine looks like it deserves it.
Yeah im got 4GB of RAM and problay gonna make that 8 in the future. And im getting a 500W PSU. Also i got a intel dual core pentium 3.2ghz so it should be fine
Is there any graphic cards that you would recommend for this system?
Perhaps, but for the current gen of games standard Core i's are fine.
ya you are right i have a pentium dual dual core with 3 gb ram :(
and ac of 230 volt
BUT I CLOSE ALL RUNNING PROGRAMS SET PRIORITY HIGH AND ADJUST FOR BEST PERFORMANCE!
The card doesnt affect the loading time
Intel Core(TM)2 Quad @2.66GHz is too weak for this video card? Because all my drivers are up to date as far as i know.
why the game lags when more particles appear on screen
well I have a 500w psu (forgot the brand) that cost a lot of money :D
what if I put a athlon x4 651 in place of the A6? would it be better?
what is your SO?
So your saying it can run bf3 on high 50 to 60 fps?
would i be able to run these games smoothly with:
A6 3670k
8gb DDR3
HD 6670
?
yo tengo
AMD Phenom 9650 x4 Quad-Core 2525 MHz
4 GB RAM DDR2
HD 6670 GDDR5
con una fuente genérica o con una fuente real?
hey igot a new pc and im not into tech stuff but is this ok

SO dont you mean OS ????
while playing sometimes my gta4 lag as soon as it hapeens i lower my resolution to 800x600 still it lags
WHY IS THIS HAPPENING??
AND I have same graphic what must be my settings for FAR CRY 3
Lets say 1280 X 720 oh the highest?
Can this card play world of Warcraft w oh highest settings?
can i run these games with these specs?

Battlefield 3 on high? I know for a fact that this card can only play the game on low....
Seems to be too jumpy really. Would prob get on my nerves
