Best Graphics card for my system, 300$ range

Hand754 · Jan 25, 2014

As stated in title, looking for a new graphics card, was wondering if GTX 670 is still a decent card.

Purchasing this week, maybe next
Budget: USD; 300$ (350$ on amazon due to gift cards)
Usage: I mostly game, would like to run DayZ, Skyrim, and TF2 on high setting with ~60Fps
Current Graphics; Intergrated graphics, only handles 800X600 web browsing, last card died.
PSU: 300 Watts, willing to upgrade if nessary.
Processor: AMD 6-core 6120, MoBo has 2 Card slots
Over clocking would be nice, might SLI/Crossfire in a few years
Monitor; 1980*1020p, will eventually add a second one

Sapphire R9 270X TOXIC 2GB AMD Radeon PCI Express Graphics Card

This is very good card for the price, but you would need to check wattage to see if the rest of your system can handle the upgrade. (a.k.a - power supply)

If you upgrade to something in that price range you will need a PSU upgrade as well :-/ but we can get you pretty close if you can spend 350$

Should get you along nicely on 1080p

Probably be right around $350 with shipping, unless you have Prime :-D

You'll have to get a new power supply, but you could get a GTX 760 and a new power supply for $300

That GTX 670 should play perfectly for nearly all games but I would strongly advise you to upgrade that PSU to 500 watts one because most graphics card these days require minimum psu power comsumption of 400 watts.

PSU: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-80PLUS-Bronze-Certified-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390698526&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+600b
The 760 is ~10% faster than a R9 270X so I would get the 760

lucasz :

I'm from UK so i $300 is about £170, although things in america is generally cheaper anyway so it would be at about £200 which would be enough for a 760

GTX 670 is 6.8% faster than GTX 760 .i think this not worth extra $50.
for me GTX 760 is enough
