APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE and Budget: I want to purchase the card ASAP, I have a budget of around $225 CAD, but I could probably spend a little more, though I'd prefer less.
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming mainly currently playing final Fantasy 14 ARR, but I also want it to be able to handle a large variety of games, other than that watching twitch, or youtube.
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: ASUS radeon HD6670 1gb is my current GPU and I believe I got a 460w power supply, However I am looking to get a 650w supply when I choose a card.
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS:
AMD FX4100 quad core 3600Mhz
Motherboard - Asus M5A88-M
8 gigs ram (2 sticks of kingston 4gb If I recall correctly)
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS - Currently looking at Newegg.ca for parts
Country of Origin - Canada
Parts Preference - No real preference, got a lot of Asus stuff from the place I ordered all my original PC parts from, but aside from that as long as they are a reputable company with a good track record I'll be fine.
Overclocking - I would love to try, but scared about frying out PC.
Monitor Resolution - I have an Asus ML228H max resolution is 1920x1080
I'm Currently looking at the ASUS HD 7870, it's right near my price point.
