Hello,

I'm new here and would like to get some help finding out which would be a great graphic card for my new build. Here are my specs:

1. ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0
2. AMD FX-8350
3. 16GB G.Skill RipjawsZ Series DDR3 2133MHz CL9 (9-11-10-28) 1.65V
4. Western Digital 1 TB SATA III 7200 RPM Black,
5. Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 250GB
6. Corsair Cooler H100i
7. Thermaltake Level 10 GT Black Steel
8. Thermaltake 850W 80 PLUS Bronze ATX12V
9. GIGABYTE GTX 670 Windforce OC 2048MB
10. Windows 7 64 bit
11. Samsung SyncMaster 24" Moniter at 1920x1080 resolution.

I would like to replace my graphic card with something that will boost my fps. The games I play are,

World of Tanks, Diablo III, League of Legends, Left For Dead 2. I will play other games as soon as I get something that could handle games like Battle Field, and one person shooters.

Thanks a lot for your help.

P.S. I have posted in "system" and have gotten 2 feed backs, one is, get a GTX780 and the other was to get a R9 290. I just want to be sure before I spend about 500 bucks on a card. I have also heard of the "AMD TRIFECTA" or how ever it's spelled. Again thanks for all your help.

If you pick the gtx 780 or the amd 290/290x it wont matter both are beast cards and you will be able to play any games on maxed settings 60 fps no problems, some games that are bad optimized may rquire you to turn down or off AA but otherwise they will play anything.

I myself would recomend getting the 290/290x with an aftermarket cooler like gigabyte or sapphire, or asus. they are cheaper then the 780/780ti and the peformance is almost the same so it really is up to you what brand you like more.

And if you would like to save some money a r9-280x would be a good pick too now im not sure how close in peformance it is to the 670 that you have but i know the r9-280x plays almost all games 60 fps on max settings too on 1080p.
