Need GPU for around 200-225$

Abhi Singh · Oct 22, 2013

Okay so i need a GPU for around 225$ ( max i can get maybe few more )

And is the amd's new GPU good? any GPU in my price range and if there is please tell me what it is equivalent to old amd gpu.

The main problem comes here is my PSU many cards wont work on this shitty PSU but i have no other option my PSU IS - cooler master thunder 500w link of the pSU for details - http://www.flipkart.com/cooler-master-thunder-500w-500-watts-psu/p/itmdbm7fefnpygyn?pid=PSUDBM7EDH7YSFTZ&otracker=from-search&srno=t_1&query=cooler+master+thunder+500w&ref=30b0f999-90cb-44ea-a87a-318437cbcbd0( i cannot change it )

rest of the rig - fx8120 ,8gb ram ,gigabyte 970a

please suggest according to my PSU

Being 500 watts wit 34amps on the combined +12V it should run cards up to HD7950 or GTX760, if you have concern about lack of quality and if you want to be safe GTX660 or GTX660Ti would be a good options since they only calls for 430/50watt PSU

I would suggest saving for a new PSU/GPU. A bad PSU can fry your other components. You can probably look to get a 7850/7870, ALTHOUGH, I'm not sure what the power consumption is for those cards, so you still might have to check.

It's 12v rail and you should be fine with that. Get AMD 7950. It's around $180 - 200 and it will run all your games, ultra high

From AMD you can look at the new Radeon R9 270X some run for around $250 tiny bit above budget such as the Sapphire Radeon using 180 watts allowing you enough room with you power supply

or from the Nvidia side , EVGA GeForce GTX 650Ti BOOST SC which runs about $210

The problem here is that , IS MY PSU 34 apms with combined +12v? i do not know how to check it thats y i provided it with a link please look it at it tell me if my PSU is capable of running 660

rolli59 · Oct 22, 2013

It does have over both rails 408watts /12 volts = 34amps! http://www.coolermaster.com/product/Detail/powersupply/thunder/thunder-500w.html
It is more than sufficient for the recommendation on the GTX660 or GTX660Ti.

So i've decided on a gtx 660 because its cheaper in india,7950 is too expensive

here is the link of the card - http://www.flipkart.com/gainward-nvidia-geforce-gtx-660-2-gb-gddr5-graphics-card/p/itmdgszzcudj5hpm?pid=GRCDGSZAEFTQQHJG&otracker=from-search&srno=t_4&query=660&ref=626e9e21-12f3-4962-a5be-1eceb8ba7cee

So tell me will a gtx 660 work fine with this PSU just confirming one last time mates.

WarWolverineWarrior · Oct 22, 2013

Yeah GTX 660 is a good card too. It uses less power than AMD so you should be good. Does it come with Batman Origins?

rolli59 · Oct 22, 2013

Yes it will work no problem.

WarWolverineWarrior :

I wish( thats is one of my fav franchise ), that but in india they never give anything ,not even a pile of shit with the card.

I just wish newegg will deliver in india in future ( though the chance is equal to 0 )
