Hello,
I found out I might need a little bit more help in my decision.
I have an old system. Q6600 2.4ghz 4GBs of ram window 7 64bit
750WPSU
I had a HD5870XFX gpu but the fan died. I tried to replace it with a temp/old GPU (8800GT) I thought it would work but I think there was some hardware issues with the 8800gt causing my system to freeze blue screen while my HD5870 did not.
So here I am. I have a Budget of $180. I run my game at 1920x1080 but I don't care if I can't max out the settings. As along as it is runnable I am okay with that. Most of the money is amazon gift card money so I am browsing through amazon right now for a GPU. I seen a few good GPUs the price. The only game I really play has this type of system requirement:
For the best performance you should aim to run the game on a system with at least these specifications.
Operating System: Windows® 7 64 bit
Processor: Intel® Core™ i5
Graphics: NVIDIA® Geforce® GTX 660 or higher, AMD Radeon™ HD 7950 or higher
Memory: 4GB of RAM.
Disk Space: 20GB.
While the Min requirements are:
Operating System: Windows® Vista 32/64bit, Windows® 7 32/64 bit
Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo
Graphics: NVIDIA® Geforce® 8800 Series, ATI Radeon™ HD 4770
Memory: 2GB (4GB recommended for 64bit OS)
Disk Space: 20GB.
Here is what I pick out. If anyone has a better suggestion please let me know it would be greatly appreciated.
