Hey guys, I had a previous account on here but I have no idea what it's called or what email I used so sorry for doubling on an account.

But on the topic, I'm just curious what to buy for a new GFX card.

I'm currently using a Radeon 6870HD and it's just really behind now, and has started slacking like crazy as of late. Games like Diablo don't run that well with AMD and I'm looking to change to Nvidia but preferably for a cheaper option.

EDIT: I just want something to run newer games that are coming out really. Fallout 4 in mind.
I'm looking at a GTX750 Ti 2GB, but I'm not even sure if that's any better. I just want something a little bit more efficient.

I have a AMD cpu but I'm not sure if they'll work together.

Any suggestions? I'm in my overdraft at the minute.

Thanks guys :)

*** specs ***
FX8350 / 8 GB RAM / 500 watt PSU

Recommendation: In order to play 1080p @ 60 FPS w/ ultra details, you'll need a GTX 970. It's a card that costs approximately USD$325.

750(Ti): If you purchase the GTX 750(Ti), you'll need to greatly turn down details or resolution in 2015 games, in order to get 60 FPS. Also, Nvidia's replacement for that card is scheduled to be released next month August. It'll be called the GTX 950(Ti).

One more thing: Your power supply wattage is borderline for the GTX 970. You probably can squeeze buy on it, but it would be cool to know the mfg and model.
