title says all. I need it for atleat 5 years for now and future games.

All help is needed

among these 2 i will say r7 265

Higher effective memory clock speed 5,600 MHz vs 5,000 MHz
Higher memory clock speed 1,400 MHz vs 1,250 MHz

the 7850 I m looking at is also 2 gb. but the thing is its 21 cm whereas r7 265 is 23. Both cards do fit in mine but the r7 is a perfect tight fit.

its only 2 cm difference if both cards fit then go with 265 its a renamed and tweaked version of 7850

check this out as an example

ok but the r7 265 is a perfect tight fit with there being only 3 cm between my gpu and case.

it dosent matter if u handle the card well wile installing it and until it touches the case

well take a look at my case http://www.computershopper.com/desktops/reviews/gateway-dx4840-15 and then tell me

there is no mention of how long gpu ur case fits and if u have a 300watt of psu then pls upgrade it to a 500 watt , its better to change your case along with your psu if its possible ...

its 550W ALREADY I changed it. but the r7 265 gpu says it has awesome heat cooling system. two fans. two heat pipes. The heatsink has 2 aluminum blocks and 2x copper heatpipes to dissipate the heat. That is good enough even if it is close eh?

the 7850 is released in 2012 and r7 265 in 2014 so its newer technology with better cooling and higher clocks as i said before it doesn't matter if your GPU is a tight or loose fit in your case what matter is the case air flow and ventilation..
