Hi,after doing research over a month,i narrowed down my choices to following cards.this is my final choices as i won't be able increase to my budget to gtx 460 or whatever.
sys. spec:e4600@2.6ghz,2gb ram 667mhz,pci 1.0,monitor:1440 x 900@75 hertz(soon to be updraded)
psu(on the way,need help to decide,budget is max. of USD 30.00
gts 450:asus direct cu and msi cyclone
gtx 550Ti:msi cyclone and leadtek(both oc version)
1.Problem in choosing gts 450 asus or msi is that msi cooler is known to run cooler than asus.
however,asus is known to be a brand for it's quality and very popular,bt overpriced.it's made up of alloy components and claims to have longer live span.Also,have vram heatsink,msi don't have.
so,should i choose msi or asus if i'm buying gts 450.Also hw abt EVGA(know it's g8 4 oc bt totally unneeded)
2.well msi is also well known bt leadtek,is no where on the web,why??nt important.well this is:
i know cyclone is great cooler(my ambient temperature is very high,enough to make sweat 1 easily,like 30 celcius on noon,and i'm running computer for
non-stop 6-8hours/day,so cooling is important 4 me,bt nt too much since i heard,unlike cpu,gpu is able a max temperature of 70c,),
Leadtek is a cheap 1.Saw it have a beefy cooler bt i don't know it's temperature compared to msi.Abt gpu quality/reliablity/most importantly durability,i nvr heard abt leadtek.So,hw does leadtek compares to msi since it's cheaper by USD 10.00.
Lastly,i know gtx 550Ti is better than gts 450,but gtx550 is all oc edition(want to avoid it) and it's leadtek too,is ok brand??
also,don't ask me to buy gtx 460 even the 768mb version,it's a lot pricier in my country(by 10%,out of budget)
So,guys pls help,should i choose leadtek 550 or worthy to grab the msi cyclone.Both are oc,so thinking of going for gts 450,asus or msi.
