Hi,

I am looking for a new graphics card to upgrade from my radeon hd 4850.

i mainly play counter strike GO

but have a Samsung sync master on the way so would maybe like to venture out to 3d viewing

i am looking at the following 3 cards.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB 384Bit DDR3 £52

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 1GB 256Bit DDR3 £41

NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 1GB DDR2 £35

wondering weather its worth paying that extra for the 2gb? dont really know anything about graphics cards

people were mentioning a hd7850 but they are almost twice the price

Thanks

Those graphics cards are very poor choices, they pack DDR3 Memory (old technology) and have huge bandwidth, way more than the graphics card's processor possibly needs.

A decent card to play games requires 1 GB GDDR5 and 192bits. One 1 GB Vram is good enough, unless you game on several monitors at high resolutions, or mod skyrim to hell, then more Vram is required.

What's your budget?

You're not looking properly in ebay. These cards can't have less than 1 GB Vram.

Here are all entries in Uk's Ebay:

See which one seems best for you.

And yes, that motherboard is compatible with the ATI 7770.
