Hi there
Thanks all for all the help I got from you experts

I have low budget built and am not sure what graphics card to take
AMD 260x or gtx 750 or 750 ti ??

My build is:
AMD trinity a10 5800k
Regular motherboard
(4gb X 1) 1600pci gonna upgrade it later to 8gb
Low cheap pcu ...am out of cash now
Samsung evo 120gb

And the games I want to play in high setting is:
Dota 2
Skyrim
Borderlands
And other games with low graphics

What I take?
I was thinking of gtx 750 because of low power usage but the AMD 260x better than him with same costs!!! Then I thought about gtx 750 ti because it got better performance than the AMD and more gpu ram and low power usage ..
But the problem is gtx 660 is better with same price as gtx 750 ti but not low power usage

So pls what should I take for my games?
My screen resolution is 1680x1050

The EVGA GTX 750 Ti is also a nice card and getting a G-Sync capable card would be handy if you eventually bought a G-Sync capable monitor. The EVGA would also be one of my top choices.

first thanks for the fast replay

but the r9 270 needs more power and same performance with gtx 660 with low power "i guess"
actually i like the idea of no need to use the 6 pin in gtx 750 and 750 ti

The R9 270 doesn't perform identically to the 660, it might benchmark closely but in real games it performs better. And power draw is pretty similar. If you are more concerned about power than performance get a 750 ti, but if you want to have better gaming power get the R9 270

(Sorry for slow reply I was having dinner :) )

Just as I've said. It has great performance per watt, but not as much performance per dollar. And not as much performance in general. So it's his choice between power efficiency and less performance, and a little bit more power for more performance. Honestly, Maxwell is cool and all, but I'd wait until the desktop 800 series if you want to buy one.

every one needs more performance but since i don't play high graphics games why i bring one and i drain more power and take big space in my case !! and needs better psu than i have !
so i guess gtx 750 ti good choice for me if am not mistaken

the asus 750 ti oc very nice but its not supporting nvidia g-sync (no D-port) and big card with 6 pin power connecter
i found evga gtx 750 ti oc better choice

R9 270X > R9 270 > R7 265 > R7 260X > R7 260.

Get it right...

(My 270X has 4 gigs, it outperforms a 290X when it's in crossfire)

Ya you're right, for some reason I thought you were talking about the 260x

Latest drivers seem great to me, but buying low end or high end GPUs can be a bad idea. With the 780 vs the 780 ti you pay hundreds more for 5% more performance. And with the really low end cards, you pay $100 for something that can barely run Minecraft with 32x32 textures.

Smart buys:
AMD: 270 (if you are starved for cash), 270X, or 280X
Nvidia: 760 or 770
