With cyber monday around the corner, I thought I would use the opportunity to buy myself a better graphics card with the discount and all. I've been gaming the past 2 ~ 3 years using an AMD Radeon 6670. I've been out of touch with the newer generation of graphics cards and I'm scared of getting ripped off so I need some advice on what I should get. Here are some considerations when giving an answer:
1. My budget is around $150.00
2. I want to play a game like Assasins Creed Black Flag on the highest resolution on around medium ~ high graphics (out of very low, low, medium, high, very high). If the price range is too low, then I'm willing for highest resolution on very low.
3. I'd prefer AMD because I'm not really familiar with Nvidia. Not to say that I'm a pro regarding AMD cards, I just know more about it than I do Nvidia. But if there is a great Nvidia card for the price, then by all means write it down.
4. I'm going to be overclocking this GPU using MSI Afterburner and Kombuster.
My computer specs are (according to Speccy)
DELL Studio XPS 7100 series
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1050T Thuban 45nm Technology, 2.80Ghz
RAM: 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 664MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard: Dell Inc. 0GK1K2 (CPU 1)
Graphics: Generic PnP Monitor (1920x1080@60Hz) 1024MB ATI AMD Radeon HD 6670 (Dell)
Thank you
