GPU specs that fits my budget and usage

Fai Nabigo · Jun 22, 2013

Hi all,
I need a couple advice of what GPU im goin to buy, atleast mid range 50 to 60$ budget.. im a casual gamer, play Starcraft 2, diablo 3, i also surfing net more often and watch HD movies...

Some say having a dedicated GPU is good to free up some CPU work and can make your system speed/ performance improve,
I dont know if it is right, need you opinion and suggestion thanks

Im currently using Integrated GPU intelHD2500,

my current system:
Monitor max reso = 1950x1200
CPU = i3 3210 (3.2 Ghz)
Mobo = Asus P8B75M lx
RAM = 8GB kingston HyperX 1600Mhz (4GB x 2pc)
HDD = 500BG seagate
PSU = 600 watts

Your not going to get a very good GPU for $60, I'd recommend stepping up at least to a 7750, it'll run right around $100. I'd really think about getting a 650ti for $40 more, it'll be enough to max out StarCraft, and your CPU is good enough to handle it. Plus your running 1080p.

or if you really can't come up with $100, a 630, keep in mind Nvidias run a bit better with Blizzard games.

Increase your budget.. At that resolution you're looking at a HD6570-HD6670 which are not powerful enough to provide a smooth experience at 1950x1050. Of course, these 2 GPU's will be an upgrade from your current onboard graphics but even then they'll lag at that resolution. I wouldn't recommend anything less that a HD7850 but that is way out of your budget.. You shouldn't be getting anything less than a HD7770 which is 108 dollars if im not mistaken. P.S Your resolution is kinda huge so unless you like to strain your eyes on lower resolutions i suggest you increase your budget and get something better.

The $100 hd7770 include 2 free games.

I need to save more money to have HD7770 up specs of GPU.
for the meantime, im planning not to use the full resolution of my monitor in gaming
maybe atleast 1280 x 1024 resolution when playing high specs game.

im looking for this 2 GPU that a bit close to my budget.

1 GB Nvidia GeForce 630 DDR5 128bit
1GB ATI Radeon 6670 DDR5 128bit

You are better of using the on board graphics for now and save up for a decent gpu. Buying either one is already 40 to 70% of a 7770 and a wast of money. The 7770 is so much better than either.

Thanks everyone for your comment and suggestion,
Ill just wait and save money for higher GPU specs that suites my needs,
much better if they will drop price soon.

Another solution is the 7770 comes with Fry Cry 3 and Far Cry Blood Dragon if you can sell the game codes that will bring the price down.
