Hi Friends,

Right now I am running an AMD 8350 Vishera at 4.2 Ghz and I have a Radeon 6870 gpu. The two games I mostly play are Wow and Rift. Which of these gpu's would perform better for these two games.....would like to get ultra settings AND 60 fps + if possible. I heard that Wow plays nicer with Intel and Nvidia. Also...would adding an extra $100 and getting a GTX 770 bump up the fps with a DRASTIC noticeable difference? Thanks in advance for reading the post and giving and and all advice...HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

WoW actually would benefit more from a better Cpu than a video card. I have an Intel 3570k and 6870 and I can play on Ultra fairly well. 25man raids cause it to drop though.

I just can't recommend AMD Radeon 270x at the moment since the drivers are troublesome and Everything Is In Beta. Since changing drivers two days ago I've had to clear up trouble once again just getting them to work correctly.
NVidia has their sh*t all in one sock.
AMD is the scrambled eggs in the game right now.

the gtx 760 is the best mid range card at the moment because for 1 reason unless you want a wind turbine in you house then get the r 270x and you will get more performance out of the gtx 760

Does anyone have a FACTS they can base their recommendations on.....seems whenever I ask a question like this the AMD and NVIDIA fanboys come out of the woodwork. Thanks in advance for all your answers!

proof is in the pudding for me. I would simply buy the 760. This AMD experience is way too funky and underdeveloped. Save yourself the aggravation. If you want real proof do like I did and try two cards back to back. The 650 ti boost will outperform a 270x with current drivers. I know because I had both. I have no charts or recorded info to show only time and aggravation
