APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE:ASAP BUDGET RANGE: USD $150-200 Before Rebates
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: General Gaming. I dont really have a game in mind. But think more BF3 and not Mario Brothers or WoW.
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY Nvidia Geforce 8800GT 768k and Ultra LSP 650W PS.
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS:
Board: ASUS M5A88-V EVO Rev X.0x
Proc: 3.60 gigahertz AMD FX-4100 Quad-Core
Memory: 8GB PC3-10600 Unbuffered Non-ECC 1333MHz
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN:US
PARTS PREFERENCES:Have always owned Nvidia cards, but this Mobo supports ATI Crossfire, so I am open to ATI for this build.
OVERCLOCKING:No
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe Crossfire (suggestions?)
MONITOR RESOLUTION:Using Vizio E260MV (max res, I believe is: 1920x1080 my current res.)
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I would like to have an upgrade to my current card. I blew up my old momo last week and just did a rebuild with the above specs. I realized that I might be able to get a better card for the machine..but haven't done complete build in like 8 years...so I out of date on what's good or not.
I saw this card: Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 6850 PCIE @ Amazon. It's $139 bucks, but I dont know its an upgrade or not.
Thanks for any help or advice. I know there is a another post regarding upgrading the 8800GT, but my specs are a little different.
