Getting a new graphics card

monkeyman0121 · Nov 17, 2014

I want to get a graphics card but have two in mind.

1. Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU II OC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card

2. EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SC 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
http://www.amazon.co.uk/EVGA-GeForce-GDDR5-Graphics-Card/dp/B00966IREK?SubscriptionId=AKIAJMPUPDNYIYT5HIWA&tag=pcspecs-21&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B00966IREK

I want to know which is better and what kind of power supply is needed for each. (the first I was recommended a EVGA 600W Bronze PC Power Supply).

I also want to know a specific power supply not vague like 'you need a 600 watt'.

Links would be good. One last question, whatever graphics card you choose. Is it up to this generations standards on games or will I have to get an upgrade soon, to handle the next gen.

660 is old, go for the 760. And as for gfx a good 500w Psu will do you fine, but I recommend going for at least 650w if you plan on upgrading in the future to a stronger card.

I stand by Corsair AX series modular PSU. I own two of them and they work amazing. And it is also more efficient with the platinum ratings and all .

I know this isn't really answering your question but there is a r9 280 available that is cheaper and will get better gaming performance than both of these cards.

I agree, go with this.

this card is the same class as 770

First of all get R9 280 it is better than both of them and the same price--> http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1332?vs=1038
if you want to know a specific PSU you have to tell us your specific budget and specs.
And I think there is no current gen and next gen in PC games. It only applies to consoles.
