Hey everyone I am building a new setup but I need to choose a graphics card. Here is my proposed build:
CPU Intel Core i7-3770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Fan Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Mobo Asus SABERTOOTH Z77 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard
RAM Corsair Vengeance 8GB (4 x 2GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage
1. boot drive Mushkin Chronos 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
2. secondary drive Sandisk 64GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
3. main drive (still looking for 500 GB to 1TB)
Case Silverstone PS06B-W ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU SeaSonic G 550W 80 PLUS Gold Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Optical drive Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
OS Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit)
So I was thinking of getting the Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 3GB Video Card but it is quite expensive at $310, so I thought maybe a 7850 or a 650 ti would also do the trick but just wanted to ask. It would be best if the card was around $150 with a limit of $200. Please take into consideration all aspects of the card except the noise level (Case will be beside desk). And please tell my why the card you choose is a good card! Also If you could give me any thoughts you have on my build that would be appreciated as I have not bought any pieces yet so there's still time to change.
Thanks to all in advance.
