Hello guys, I have an enormous dilemma of choosing between EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti SSC 1GB and ASUS HD 7790 Direct CU II OC 1 GB. the prices are on the exact same level.

Even though I have gone through tons of reviews - I just cannot make a decision.

What to pick for the best results - Full hd Minimally - 1600*900, High AA, AF and pure framerate.

The games I play are usually of type : Metro 2033 - last light, Tomb raider, Far cry, Mass effect. So mainly FPS shooters, Some of the shooter RPGs, and action- adventure.

Which one, and why should i pick that card interests me the most. I have an AMD X4 740 K configuration, and not planning for SLI or Crossfire.

Many thanks for your help guys.

Have a great day

Michal Simkovič

You're looking at two pretty similar cards in terms of real world performance, though the GTX 650 Ti probably edges out the HD 7790 based on the [failry consistant] info I could dig up, though the HT 7790 has its own benefits (Crossfire being one of them).

In your case, a couple of things can help you pick. What video card do you have now? Pick whichever brand you have now, will make setup smoother. Check warranty on the cards, and connection types that would suit you best. Since they are very even in performance and price, you need to pick based on something else. Maybe one has a cooler looking fan hehe.

Now I have an 128 MB ATI, but that is just replacement for my passed away GT240 1GB, BTW I was really impressed with Nvidia, but Asking myself if its not the time to try something NEW.
I Guess that The cards will have better performance in games optimized directly for them right ?

It is actually 50:50. The factor I think would be which one has the higher overall performance, - not considering just optimized games for a ATI or GF

Not to sound biased or anything, as I'm very much an AMD fan, but I've found that when there are two cards that are very close in comparison, the NVIDIA card is usually better, however minor. However, consider things like power consumption and features over plain performance, especially when things are so comparable.

If you want a straight recommendation from me, I'd go with the ASUS HD7790-DC2OC-1GD5 Radeon HD 7790 for one reason: Crossfire support. The GTX 650 Ti doesn't have SLI support and might be more beneficial going forward over buying a more powerful card that might not be in the budget.
