Hello.
I recently have had some problems with my old Raedon 6870. I posted a question on it here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2970355/sapphire-6870-gpu-working-correctly.html.
Unfortunately no one has been able to give me an answer on the problem, and I've decided to go ahead and get a new GPU.
So I've been searching around and decided on this as the best bang for the, so far:
http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Whisper-Graphics-02G-P4-2966-KR/dp/B00SC6HAS4/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1455491729&sr=1-1&keywords=gtx+960
It is a EVGA GeForce GTX 960 2GB SSC GAMING ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card 02G-P4-2966-KR.
My CPU specs are:
Rosewill 80+ Gold 450 W PSU
FX-6300 OC'd to 4.0Ghz (normal is 3.5).
8GB DDR3 Memory
Broken (I guess) 6870 HD Radeon (1GB)
BioStar TA970 MOBO
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler
I liked the GTX 960 both for its improved performance over the 6870 and its significantly less power draw at the same time. It seems to be a lot more effienct powerwise, as well as run cooler than the R9 380's and other AMD GPUs I've been looking at.
My budget would ideally be between $150-200US.
So, does anyone else have any suggestions that would be better for the price point for a new GPU for my system?
Thank you.
