Hello, I am looking to upgrade my 650ti 1 GB and I am on a 200 dollar budget. And I can upon this card:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
I want to play bf4 on high if not ultra settings, would this card handle it? I have a AMD FX 8350 8 core CPU and if this matters I have windows 8 because some people say it can raise the FPS by substantial amount. So would this card be the bang for my buck? Also, I do NOT like noisy types of fans in my case, would this be a noisy GPU? I am new to gaming on PC and just want to know. Please answer ASAP! Thanks

have a look at these
Which one would you recommend out of those three? And can you please show me the exact card you have? I'm guessing you play BF4 and stuff like that. Thanks.

Do you think the power color, the third link you sent me would be just about that same? I cannot go over 200 dollars and the power color is 194 after rebate which is perfect. But would it match with yours?
And do you know much about the power color? Thanks.

One thing about the power color it has dual fans it should help keep it cooler as well nice looking card thos I want to buy a 2nd 7950 soon so I can crossfire them when I have funds myself I know how tight money is these days as well.And the power cooler doesn't have a reputation for temp. Or fan noise problems? Just wondering.

It's ok, I already have the PC built just want a new card, but all I really want to know is about the power cooler, these are the two questions I have for it cause I am leaning towards it because of the price, ok, will it run bf4 on high if not ultra and does it make about of noise when the fans are going on it, and not while the PC Is just idling, while I am playing Bf4. Know what I mean?

I understand and please understand that at this point I cant tell you if it will run ultra on BF4 I am running high with mine which is the 7950 in question BF4 is still in beta so anything could change but at a 200 dollar budget it cant get any better then this unless someone mentions a nvidia card thats on the same level as the 7950 at the same cost noise should not be anymore then what a 120 mm fan will be I am sure any gpu card you ramp up IE playing a hard core game is going to turn the fan speeds up thats a given with out silent cooling add 50 to 100 to your purchase or a artic areo cooling system which is going be you disasemble your card and install it which means you need to buy thermal compund as well but as for the power color I wouldnt hesitate to buy to day if I had the 200 I would but I have xmas to get out of the way before I buy more toys like I said I am going to crossifre 2 of them either the xfx or another btand which ever is cost effective for me.

I'll look more into the powercolor, seems like to be the best card for the price.

Something to consider I am running my 7950 on this system
APU 5800 K QUAD CORE
8 GIG GSKILL RAM 1866
120 GIG KINGSTON SSD
1 TERRABYTE WESTERN DIG HARD DRIVE
2 TERRABYTE TOSHIBA HARD DRIVE
BIOSTAR HI MAX MOTHERBOARD
WIN 7 530 WATT RAID MAX POWER SUPPLY
your system since its 8 core compared to my 4 core system should run marvleous
heatsink 212 hyper plus cooler master in the haf case.

Ok, thanks! I am going to ask around here more about that powercolor, get some second opinions.
