2x GTX 260 SLi vs GT640 4GB

Juhhei · May 26, 2015

Which of them is the better option, kind of a noob when it comes to this.

2x260 are better but both of these are very old cards, its better to get single 750ti.

Juhhei · May 26, 2015

How about a 560Ti (on a budget here)

Falkris · May 26, 2015

How much a budget we talking here? If you can I'd say either 750ti or a R9 270.

GTX260x2? GT640? 560Ti?
You are simply wasting money buying obsolete prehistoric cards.
No matter how cheap they are.
If you game, nothing is really worthy below GTX750Ti or R9 270.
If you really really really really on budget, R7 260 is the absolute minimum.

Falkris :

About 60 euros. It also can be used.

I am using an Asus P5Q deluxe motherboard (old). Can it run the 750?

See this hierarchy chart for reference.

The GT 260 is more powerful, but won't run modern DX11 games, so the GT 640 is automatically better. It's not a very good card but for less demanding games like free to play, indies or old games it's good.

The 560Ti is a good card, but quite old now, if you can stretch to a R7 260x 2GB or 750Ti 2GB, good. Otherwise the 560Ti will play modern games too, just not as well.

Increase the budget to R9 260, there is no real point to go back to older GPUs.

guanyu210379 :

Will it work with PCI 2?

guanyu210379 · May 26, 2015

Yup! The any PCIe x16 version will work. 2? 3? it does not matter and the performance impact is ignore-able.

Creme · May 26, 2015

If you stretch your budget to a R7 260 or 260x (there is no R9 260/X), do get one with 2GB of VRAM.

Falkris · May 27, 2015

I'd go for a newer card if you can, that said you trying to do 1080p gaming?
