Hello everyone! I was wondering if it was worth it for me to change from my Nvidia GT 620 2GB Low Profile card to a AMD Radeon HD 7750 1GB DDR5 Low Profile, but people have been saying that Nvidia is better optimized and I should just stick to the Nvidia GT 620, but I really want a better card, and the HD 7750 Low Profile fills the postion, so is it worth the Upgrade?

And on a side note, just incase you are wondering, I am only able to fit Low Profile cards, because of the casing I have, so please don't recommend other big card that won't fit or anything, the pc that I have is the Acer XC600, I know I should have bought it, and should have just built one on my own, but I just did, so yes. Thank you for reading! Have a good day!

It would make more sense to say that AMD cards are more optimized for BF4, because the 7790 is Mantle capable, so it could get a potential performance boost when Mantle is implemented into BF4. Low to medium settings at 720p is definitely playable with the 7790.

While it's definitely worth the upgrade, the problems I see are your 220 watt power supply and not only the low profile limitation, but the single slot width limitation. Make sure the card you're looking at doesn't have a dual-slot cooler as it won't fit within your case.

No worries my friend, I have done the correct research about all the above, the AMD Sapphire Radeon HD 7750 Low Profile is able to fit, I have found other photos of it in very similar cases, and it is only a 1 slot card, also for the PSU, I have done the Research about it, and it will work.

Optimized for games like Battlefield 4 on a Low to medium settings at 720p, I am not those types who needs High quality, just play ability, but people say they got more FPS on Nvidia cards as it is more optimized, so I was wondering if it was worth it
