Hey guys would i rather buy a Gtx 7501gb Superclocked or a Gtx 750 ti 2gb ?
And can u guys tell me the difference of a 1gb card and a 2gb one ? Is there like a x2 fps between 1gb card and 2gb ?
And whats the difference of a OC and a non OC graphic card
 
Solution


In that case, go for the GTX 750 Ti. If you can swing the 2GB version, get it. If not, the 1 GB version will be nearly as good. And at 720p, you won't be able to tell the difference. This card has $10 rebate if you don't mind waiting 6-8 weeks. And if you get Newegg promos, it is on sale another $10...

OC card is overclocked from the manufacturer, the non OC is not. The vram is where the framebuffer is stored, so if you're playing at a higher resolution, or on multiple screens, more can be stored in the buffer with more vram. If you try to play at a very high resolution with only 1gb of vram, your fps could be choked off by waiting to get loaded into the framebuffer. I'd get the 750 ti 2gb for sure, it's a better card in every way

An overclcoked card will have it's core & memory clock speeds increased above the stock settings.

The additional Vram will make little difference in gaming performance. More Ram will be used when the graphical details settings are higher. Although the 750's aren't really powerful enough to use it all in every scenario. Some games like Skyrim, if modded with intensive graphical mods, may use all that ram, but the card may struggle compared to a more powerful card.

The GTX 750 OC'd V's GTX 750ti: The overclock will get you closer to the GTX 750ti , but it will still be faster. And you can easily overclock the GTX 750ti yourself with a program like MSI afterburner or EVGA PrecisionX, just a case of moving a couple of sliders.

GTX 750ti is better

I play ALOT of league of legends and im seeking to get 60+ fps on that game MAXED out :) Will my computer + the gtx 750 ti provde me that :D ? Maybe 80 fps - 100 ?

Btw my motherboard has PCIE express 1.0 slot and cards im looking have Pcie 3.0 and i asked many ppl they said that it would fit on a 1-4% less performance if i had a pcie 3.0 slot on my mobo :D is this true ? Just for claryfication and not waste money ona card that wont do for my pc

Yeah, there's not really a reason to buy an OC edition of a card other than you don't have to do it yourself and you know at the very least how much overclockability is in that specific die.

With your specific setup, both would be a good match, and should get you quite good framerates at 720. Either will be good, so either let your budget decide, or if that's not a big issue, splurge on the ti so you can turn up the settings a bit more or get that extra 10 fps.

Ah, okay. Depending on which specific model of CPU, you may or may not get all the performance from the GPU. But it will be an improvement, and fit well when you do decide to upgrade your system. The 400W PSU should be fine as long as it's semi-decent, GTX 750's can run on decent generic 300W Dell PSU's.
