Hello comunity of tom'shardware.

I am looking the best video card for the money.

I have a tight budget of 130 euros.

I want to play new titles at high resolution 1080p,if not possible then 720p at medium-high settings.Also it is going to use for light games like lineage2,league of legends,Wow and some older titles which i want to max out at 1080p if possible.

The GPU's listed bellow are going to be paired with a AMD Fx 6300 and Corsair CX 430W.

Now,
I am between choosing three graphics card models.

GTX 650 or GTX 750 or RADEON R7 260X. Also i need an advice on the brands.For exaple the XFX Radeon r7 260X costs 110 euros while the MSI one costs 135 euros, do they got the same performance?Which of these brands is the best manufacturer for these models? I hope you got what i am trying to say.

All the parts are going to be bought by this website. http://www.e-shop.gr/vga-kartes-grafikon-l?table=PER&ca...

Sorry for my english,


Thanks for reading.

The GTX 750 and R7 260x will have roughly the same performance, but the 750 is much more efficient. For that reason, I'd go for the 750.

The least expensive model on the website you linked to is the Gigabyte version, which is a good version. However, your budget of 130 euros can afford you a lot more video power if you used a different merchant. Why not buy from an authorized Ebay seller that ships worldwide? You could most certainly step up to the GTX 660 with that kind of money.

The reason i wont buy from another website is that,i dont have a credit card and where i will get all the parts they are going to install them for me.

Thanks for your replies,remember the PSU is corsair cx430w will i be able to run the 750 or the 260x?Also should i buy the 2gb version or the 1gb to save some money.Any thoughts?

they got different memory amount. 1Gb and 2Gb respectively. Buy the cheapest brand R7 260 with 2Gb memory

The least expensive model on the website you linked to is the 2GB model.

With that PSU, I'd definitely stick with the 750. I forgot you mentioned that.

Your PSU is fine for either...some games will run better on the 260X and some will be better on the 750. I've had a 260X. It's a very nice card.
