i have around £100 (gb) to spend on a graphics upgrade for my current rig (i3 2100 dh67bl mo bo 10gb ram (4+2 & 2+2 matched pair) radeon 5770 1gb gddr5 .750 + 300gb HD's (not ssds) win 7 x64) for new cards this puts me in 750ti territory i think, but looking on ebay for around £85 i can have a 5790 dual gpu card power consumption is not a problem for me my psu is overkill anyway i am not bothered abbout being leftfeild or odd choice or power consumption if i had a crossfire mobo id be considering another 1 or 2 5770's or 6770's i9 just want raw fps gaming power for the likes of the crysis & battlefield series or whatever high demanding game you can think of, all answers considered. thanx

Its pretty much a slightly higher clocked 7870.
At 1080p its on a par with the old 5970 but with 50% of the power draw.
I would pay an extra £15 personally for a brand new warrantied card over something 5 years old which has probably been hammered .

thanks for the link as i said i see that im in the price range of the 750ti, there is one available ex display in the currys/pc world at the end of my street for £85 but what im asking is for the money what is the best performance? old card new card is unimportant as is power consumption cross fire etc. i can get a dual gpu 5970 for £85 too, but with £100 ish to spend what is the best performing card out there?, im leaning towards the 5970 at the moment, but im open to any and all recomendations, i want the most monsterous card that can be boughrt for 100 of the queens finest sterling pounds to where should i direct said resource my good sir?

^ to be fair to shadowreaper you did say £100 & at a limit the 750ti is the card at that exact budget.

In this case though you would have to be a crazy man to not spend an extra tenner for what equates to nearly a 50% performance increase.

I will say if you're going for the 270 buy it asap - its a sterling price .
As soon as a good deal is posted on here it filters over to hotukdeals & the like,Amazon sell 30 or 40 cards in under 12 hours & then up the price 10-20% .

r9 270 from MSI would be the best bet in that budget.
Also, you don't need the 270x 'coz the 270 can be overclocked easily to bypass the 270x's performance and thus saving around 20$
