Hello,
I recently received a Sapphire HD 5770 512 MB video card and i was curious how it compares to my n250 GTS 1GB. Please do not recommend buying a new card, i already have the 2 and have limited budget.
My sytem is
CPU - i3 2100
MOBO - Asus P8H67-M PRO
HDD - Western Digital, info on this will be useless.
RAM - 4 GB RAM KVR Kingston low profile single sided ( forgot the actual code )
PSU - BeQuiet 540W
OS: Windows 10.
Latest Drivers.
Sorry if the info about my system is incomplete, i am at work and i do not know my system from the top of me head.
I have searched everywhere for a comparison between the n250 and HD 5770 and everywhere i have found that HANDS DOWN HD 5770 is superior, "no contest" , Better, faster, stronger. But i was quite confused because on gpureview.com, the only thing that the N250 has better is the Texel/s (texture fill rate) and it better by almost 12 mil.
So i have plugged the card in, one at a time and compared them in games, only 2 atm.
League of Legends - I usually run it caped at 60 FSP but for the love of the experiment i uncapped the FPS(Max settings)
-N250 GTS - uncapped FPS reaches at a max to 310/s but it is mostly between 250 and 280
-HD 5770 is kinda stable at 180 FPS.
EVE Online, this one is tricky:
-N250 GTS - High detail ( max everything ) i was getting 70 FPS in station and also 70 FSP outside station in heavy environment ( dust particles ). The FPS fluctuates a little but i blame my other applications for this, it usually does this for the first 5 minutes of the game then it stabilizes.
It can run uncapped with very high FSP but it will cook the GPU very fast, lost a video card that way.
-HD 5770 - High detail in station i get 35 FPS looking at a quiet area, outside station also 35 FSP, setting to Medium i get 65 FPS but it drops to 30 when i hit a heavy environment and you can actually feel how the GPU struggles to fill the texture.
The N250 has a 256 buss with 1GB
The HD5770 has 128 buss with 512 MB
My question is (sorry for the wall of txt), why is the HD 5770 BETTER than the N250 GTS ?
Numbers show that is, actual game performance ( the ones that i play ) says the otherwise.
Am i doing something very bad and i am not noticing it? I have reinstalled the OS last week and every driver is freshly installed.
The other difference is that the n250 can reach up to 70 Celsius while i struggle to make the HD to go over 45 Celsius.
Sorry for the possibility of to much information or for the lack of it ( first time posting here )
