What GPU will be best for this configuration Rig ?

SaMaN007 · May 24, 2014

Hi All,

After getting very disappointed from my "Sapphire AMD/ATI Raedon Dual X R9 270x GPU" because of Its black Screen Driver crash issue(I sent it for RMA thrice) I 'm thinking of purchasing some other GPU. Need some opinion on this.

My Rig config:

CPU: AMD FX 8350
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA 990FX UD5 Rev 3.0
RAM: GSkill Ripjaws 8 GB(4x2)
HD : WD Blue 1 TB
PSU : Corsair VS650 - 650W

Please suggest me some Good 2GB GPU that fits the current rig and is in less than 300$ range.

The purpose is Using 3 Monitors, running virtual machines, occasional editing & Gaming .

Thanks

Radeon R9 280X would probably be your best option.
Asus makes some of them http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121803
but of course, there are similar companies where you can expect the same performance and same cost with the r9 280x gpu inside.

The only time I really have 'black-screen' problems is when my OCs are too high ...

Have you over-clocked the GPU or CPU ???

Thanks for the reply, I am looking for something not in R9 series. I've heard lots of R9 series cards have this issue.

I don't think this is available in India , It will be shipped from US i guess and i need the card within a Week or so.

Thanks

The card already was an OC edition. I also tried lowering the GPU clock settings and all other solutions available online, but nothing worked.

Try that, flipkart has some others, as does IT Depot

Thanks, that's good. Can you suggest some AMD/ATI card With Eyefinity ? The purpose is to run multiple monitors easily.

I saw lots of cards on Flipkart, can't decide which one is good.

HD 7750. Can run up to 6 monitors. The AMD w600 is the same, but setup for bussiness.
