Hey guys I am torn apart between two Graphic Cards right now, I have everything else in place but I do not know which Card I should be buying. What are the two Graphic Cards you may be asking? Well they are the ATI Radeon HD 6850 and the 7770, and I need help deciding which one is the best for my system in the end. My computer Specs are as follows.
Here is my Monitor and my Computer Specs:
Monitor: Acer S211HL bd 22" Class LED Monitor - 12M:1 Contrast Ratio, 5MS response time, 1080P, 1920x1080
OS: Windows 7 64BIT
Tower Case: Diablo Tek Elite ATX Mid Tower (Comes with a 450W PSU but I am switching it out to meet the requirements on my Graphics Card)
Power Supply: Corsair 650TXV2 - 650W, 140mm Fan, Active PFC, 80 Plus Bronze, +12v 1 = 53 A
Processor: AMD Phenom II x6 1045T - Six Core, 6MB L3 Cache, 3MB L2 Cache, 2.70GHz, Socket AM3, 95W, Fan, Retail
Graphics Card: Radeon HD 6850 or 7770 <---- This is where I need help!
MotherBoard: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P
RAM: ADATA 4GB x2 DDR3 (8GB Total)
Hardrive: 1TB Seagate Barracuda
Disc Drive: Lite-On IHAS124-04 Internal DVD Writer
There are my Computer Specs for my Gaming PC that I am building. It will be on for as long as 12 hours a day and maybe even longer. The 6850 is faster and offers a better performance than the 7770, but the 7770 cuts the amount of Watts used in half. In the end I believe I have enough left over Watts from my PSU that it won't matter how many Watts the 6850 is using. Please do some research of your own and help me decide which Graphics Card I should be buying for my computer. If you have other suggestions my budget for the GPU is $150 but I believe these are the best two GPU's for this price range, thanks!
