Faster & Better GPU

Hypnotize · Dec 11, 2013

Hey guys,

I'm looking into getting a new GPU.

My current set up:

Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G41 LGA 1155
CPU: Intel I5-3570K @ stock 3.4 GHz
CPU Cooler: H55
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9
Storage: 1 TB HD
Optical: iHAS
OS: Windows 7
Current GPU: EVGA SSC 01G-P4-3652-KR GeForce GTX 650 Ti 1GB 128-bit

I was looking into getting either a GTX 660 or going with a 760. AMD is out of the question for me as I want to have an Intel/Nvidia build. I don't play GPU demanding games right now, but I will probably get into either BF4 or CoD: Ghosts in the future.

Don't bother with the 660, as it's not a huge upgrade for you. The next option would be the 760, which isn't bad at all for the price.

budget..?

tbh if you plan on playing BF4 don't know about CoD go with the new R9 series from AMD which are basically made for BF4, unless you plan on buying a gsync monitor in near future as well then AMD is better option imo, of course my opinion as a have an AMD myself, Nvidia people will say different

Budget is $400, but with my current Motherboard I can't sli (only has 1 PCI 3.0 slot).

I was looking into this: MSI Gaming N760 TF 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-bit. Reviews seem pretty good. (I would just have to change out my fans to Red LED's )

If your budget is $400 you should be looking at a GTX770 if you only want a Nvidia card. Most of them are now around $320-$350. There is a huge jump in performance between the 760 and 770 as well. My brother just made the same decision after researching both cards.

^agree with mr sincreator..(well, this one have a ticket to hell anyway..

)..

for $313, you'll a get 770, this is very good price for a such strong card..

or this one, slightly pricier ($380), but a very good choice for 770 class with 4 GB memory..

do get a 770, dont get a 4GB version, unless you plan on playing at QHD or 4K.

also check EVGA and ASUS's offerings. they are very reliable, with asus shipping the card with a backplate too
