$450 Graphics Card

SyntheticPulse · Apr 2, 2014

I am looking for the best graphics card I can get for $450. I will be gaming and playing most new games now and down the road. I also do multimedia work with the adobe suite, Boujou and cinema 4d. What is the best card I can get in this price range.

I have a 750 watt power supply, MSI Z87-G45 Mobo and windows 7 64 bit ultimate. Also I am using a 1080p monitor and will be for a while, so no plans anytime soon for 4k or duel monitor setup.

Thanks.

Your best bet is gtx 770 4Gb. If you can spare 10 extra dollars than 290 is in your price range.

Yeah, the MSI 780.

I want to stay away from the MSI 780, I have read many reviews on that card having bad coil whine and faulty parts.

Someone Somewhere · Apr 2, 2014

Just did a quick google, and a lot of the coil whine issues were fixed by a decent PSU. Noisy power can cause coil whine issues, and the extra power drawn by a faster GPU can cause the PSU to whine.

I do not trust that card, I have had a few MSI gtx cards and had a lot of trouble with them.

This one is great, and it should be $450, but unfortunately it's more expensive in the US that here in rip-off Oz, unless you can wait until the mining craze subsides

That card is $679.00 in the US. $450 is my MAX.

Never had an issue with mine. Huge overclock, always cool. I've had a MSI 660, 670, 770. Never had an issue with any of them

That is great you have had good luck with them, But I have not, plus all the negative reviews on that card, I will not be taking the risk on it.
