Which graphic card is better?

[waspinator]

Asus NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 1 GB GDDR5 (Non Ti)

or


MSI AMD ATI R6850 Cyclone 1GD5 Power Edition OC 1 GB GDDR5 Linky

or suggest better in 220$

I have never purchased an ati card before
always bought xfx branded nvidia cards, they stopped making nvidia cards couple of years ago.



My current system specifications:

Intel Core i5 2500K (bought recently)
Biostar tz68+1
2x4gb ddr 3 corsair vengeance RAM
cooler master 460w extreme series psu(will upgrade to Corsair CMPSU-600GUK 600watts)


Thank you!

Skip the PSU upgrade and put the money into a HD7850. That PSU can handle it easily.

get this one under your budget with free $50 game and also its on sale of $50 you will get $300 things on $200 really its an good gpu as you can see on neweggs feedback its cooling is nice overclocking is good and also low in noise its an sapphire card sapphire makes high end products for low cost.

and this card is even far better then those two that you have given there.

To answer your question,The GTX560 is the faster.

For $220 you could go for a 6950,GTX560ti or a 7850.My suggestion would be spend another $40 and get a 7850 with a good aftermarket heatsink.The 7850 is almost twice as powerful as a 6850.

Sapphire 6950 $200

Asus GTX560ti $220=$200 after MIR

HIS 7850 $240=$220 after MIR

Spend more money and get this...

Gigabyte 7850 $260

A lot of the 7850's are out of stock so they don't have what I would call "great" deals.Once they get back into stock I'm sure they will drop the prices a bit and have some better MIR deals.

go one kijiji or craigs list, get a used card with warranty still valid and save some money AND get a better card!! and you will still have some left over for a psu, unless you find a good one online also!

thanks for replying guys

HD 7850 looks freaking great
what's the load power consumption? i will never overclock my card

should i buy the sapphire one or HIS or gigabyte?

can 460W Coolermaster extreme series really handle this card?

Full system system specifications:

Intel Core i5 2500K (will not overclock this one either)
Biostar tz68+1 motherboard
2x4gb DDR3 Corsair Vengeance RAMs
1 x 500 seagate 7200 RPM Harddrive
I have dvd-rw but i don't use it.
no pci-card

Still waiting for reply

 

[angrydolphin]

if you can, i'd shell out a bit more for a gtx 670.

worth every penny imo. preferably non-reference, the asus model is fantastic too.

i think it'd be a bit tight with 460w though? the new cards suck up lots of power!

They are all great, but I would rank them as follows;
Sapphire>Gigabyte>HIS
And you gotta upgrade that PSU as soon as possible.

Technically yes,if you don't O.C. anything but I wouldn't recommend it because it really comes close.Just spend $60 on a quality PSU so you don't have to worry about it.
