I can only buy those that are Sold and fulfilled by amazon. As others are not available for free shipping to singapore.

For 20$ more this in better than any of your choices EVGA GeForce GTX760 SuperClocked http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperClocked-Dual-Link-Graphics-02G-P4-2765-KR/dp/B00DHW4HXY/ref=sr_1_10?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1385906309&sr=1-10&keywords=r9+270x

That 760 isn't a bad deal. But if you aren't interested in that, you'd probably be best off with the R9 270X. Basically an overclocked 7870, which already beats the 660.

Hey man! I'm from Singapore too

PC components are stupid expensive here. Stupid rent. Good to buy from Amazon.

Seeing as you didn't link to any specific models, this GTX 660 is probably the best to get if you absolutely can't go over $200.

Or maybe you can tell me what is your budget in SGD.

Performance wise: 270x>hd7870>gtx660

sosofm :

If you included the rebate . The rebate seems to be for $10 and have ended in October..

huilun02 :

Yes They're extremely overpriced... The Max i would go is SGD$300 which is the evga i have shortlisted also. But i have a nagging feeling that i shouldn't spend so much..

huilun02 · Dec 2, 2013

What games you you play and at what resolution?

SGD $300 is equal to USD $239 as of today

If not for that GTX 660, then the best 7870 I can suggest is this

Beware of those Asus cards you might come across on Amazon. Most of them seem listed in the wrong manner, and are probably frauds. Also avoid XFX cards their coolers are known to be bad.

Actually i WANT to play alot of games but when i get the card. I will focus only on one.. Mainly CS GO which is not demanding GPU wise... And i dont mind playing at even low settings. Just be able to play SMOOTHLY...

I have a 1080p res screen...

CSGO,Sleeping Dogs,JustCause2 maybe bf4....

If i dont mind playing on low setting would a 7770 work? Or i would be safer with the 7870 or even a gtx 760..

7770 would be around SGD125 -> SGD250 7870 and SGD320 for a gtx760.

guggi4 · Dec 3, 2013

I Would go for the hd7870 in your case: at this prices best price/performance

huilun02 · Dec 3, 2013

Get the 7870 it's much better than a 7770. You're going to need the extra power for newer more demanding games. It will give you all high settings in Battlefield 4 at over 60fps, which is beautiful and the 'next gen' consoles don't feel so 'next gen' anymore.

GameHard6 :

Sorry buddy, but that card is not sold and shipped directly by Amazon, and does not ship internationally. Both of which are requirements for the OP to be eligible for free shipping to his country.

huilun02 · Dec 4, 2013

That 270x is sold my MOCPINC and a bunch of other sellers. It has to explicitly state "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com."

huilun02 · Dec 6, 2013

This one is temporarily out of stock but you can still order.

PowerColor R9 270x, $200
http://www.amazon.com/PowerColor-AXPowerColor-270X-2GBD5-DHV2E/dp/B00GMONY9M/ref=sr_1_11?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1386308471&sr=1-11&keywords=r9+270

Better decide quickly. It's the festive season and a lot of good deals don't last long when everyone's buying everything for Christmas and the recent Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
