Best Graphics Card for under 400?

LegendaryPow · Jan 27, 2014

Hey guys, I wanna get a new graphics card that'll be able to handle BF4 on ultra and upcoming games similar, I would prefer to stay with AMD/Radeon because I have an A10. So yeah please no stupid comments

Also what are good websites to buy from?

Alec Mowat · Jan 27, 2014

Your processor probably won't handle the game on Ultra.

What videocard are you currently using?
I can run the game on Ultra on a GTX 670 AMP! edition, which is close in performance to the 680.

I say get the R9 270x, I have one with my AMD A10 6800K APU and get 60+ frames per second on BF4 Ultra but with anti-aliasing deferred off and v sync off

Atm I'm using the amd radeon hd 8750 and I'm able to play medium on bf4 30-50 fps

LegendaryPow · Jan 27, 2014

Ooh cool 60 GPS is good and you have the same CPU as me so, yeah 270x is around 300?

LegendaryPow :

Isn't that a laptop gpu?

LegendaryPow · Jan 27, 2014

Oops sorry 8570* so yeah it was but now it isn't

Te r9 280X is the amd card
I'd get the gtx 770 though, better performance and a bit cheaper.

Yeah I'd rather amd because my A10 and R9 would work lovely together

Roxas_Boy · Jan 27, 2014

Get a R9 270X which is $230 on newegg and with the leftover money get a Samsung 840 Evo 120gb ssd which is $100 and you'll have a blazingly awesome PC

Roxas_Boy :

Fair enough, but a ssd does nothing for gameplay.

LegendaryPow · Jan 27, 2014

Mmm ssd doesn't improve fps or anything? I'll just keep the left over money xD

sunder25 · Jan 27, 2014

LegendaryPow :

Technically they improve loading times-if the game is on the ssd.
What you do get with a ssd though is a fast boot up time and programs installed on it launch considerably faster.

LegendaryPow · Jan 27, 2014

So you just put the sad in and it automatically does that?

sunder25 :

Listen to this guy, the gtx 770 your best brt. under 400$, can run anything. and stream well too.
GTX GIGABYTE OC 770 4GIG EDITIONS WHAT YOU WANT.

AMD GPUS ARE EXPENSIVE DUE TO THE MIING COMMUNITY. DON'T BUY NOW.

LegendaryPow :

Makes no difference what brand you take for the GPU and the CPU. I think Toms actually determined that the Intels gave better crossfire performance than the AMD chips with ATI Videocards.

sunder25 · Jan 27, 2014

LegendaryPow :

No, you put it in and you need to install windows on it, and all the programs you want to load fast- and use your hdd for data/game storage.
Anything from office to firefox.
The ssd is a storage device with much better read/write speeds than classical hard drives.

Roxas_Boy · Jan 28, 2014

Your AMD APU will not keep up with the 770 or 280x I guarantee that, search it up. Those cards will be "bottlenecked" by your APU, if you want the 770/280x you'll have to get a FX CPU along with an AM3+ motherboard

LegendaryPow · Jan 28, 2014

Welll, I really think the 270x will do great with my Cpu and it'll be able to run high, or maybe ultra, and up coming games, I found a good website in NZ so thanks guys!

Roxas_Boy · Jan 28, 2014

LegendaryPow :

I live in NZ too, ComputerLounge and Ktech are the best sites to use in terms of service and customer support along with quality and fast delivery

LegendaryPow · Jan 28, 2014

Cool thanks I just had a look at those sites, great prices! And it looks legit :3

Roxas_Boy · Jan 28, 2014

Yeah I have been buying from both of them for a very long time with no issues.
