My 6930 died and I'm thinking about what card to replace it with. It seems that a 270 2gb would be sufficient for most games at 1080p and can OC to 270x performance.
I was on youtube and saw videos of Wii U games emulated through dolphin, in particular Donkey Kong tropical freeze running on Dolphin 4.0.
My build is getting old but it isn't really a good time for me to do a full upgrade. I have an i5-2500k @ 4.3 (stock voltage), 8gb DDR3-1600, and a 256gb 840.
Will the addition of a lowly 270 2gb be enough to run Donkey Kong tropical freeze, Mario Kart 8 and as well as the Zelda and Mario games smoothly.
Would I be able to run them at 1080p and if not would I be limited by my CPU or a GPU.
TL;DL, is it worth it to go 280 or is a 270 enough for Wii U emulation?
