Greetings,

Basically I'm in need of an upgrade. My current card is the GTX 560SE and lately I've been having problems with it. Specifically, overheating. I didn't necessarily have this issue before but even after cleaning it and underclocking the card (using Nvidia inspector), I will still get BSODS due to overheating. I really only play FIFA 15 and some older games and my current card runs it without any lag at all with very high settings.

I was looking into the GTX 750Ti seeing that it uses less power but as these newer generation cards come out they tend to be better than the most powerful of older cards, even with lesser specs. Should I upgrade to the 750Ti or another model? Used to have AMD but I hated the drivers. I dont want to spend huge on a graphics, so I'm looking for something that will do the job.

I also plan on upgrading my MOBO and CPU but that is a separate topic.

Thank you for your time.

I dont necessarily need it to a beast of a card but if it performs a somewhat better with lesser heat then it should be a good card. As for AMD I looked at the R7 360, any thoughts or are there better?

I've looked read and watched various reviews of it so it should be good enough for what I need it to do without spending alot.

I'll also consider that card, I'll have to look at pricing options as well so I might end up getting the 370 should I find a really good deal on that.

What About an RX 460/ GTX 1050.

The RX 460 is around the price of a 750ti, and it performs better.

The 1050 is coming out soon, and might perform better than the 460 (I would wait for it)

Although, I do have a 750ti in my system and it is great, so If anything else, go with the upgrade :D
