Choosing a decent video card.

Last response: in Graphics & Displays

O I have an antec 500w, p8z68v-w pro mobo, and an i5 cpu.

I now need a video card, and I don't have a bunch of money.

I am looking for a card, that doesnt have to be new, but just can play a good amount of modern games around 30 fps or so.

Keep it pretty cheap, thanks.

P.S. Im running at 1440x1900, but I can do 1920x1080. And Im pretty sure its a 1080p monitor.

What's your budget? I really like those 7750's for $100. Definitely the best card out under $100. If you can go up to $150 it opens up even more options though.

+1 to rolli, the 7750 is the best low end video card you can get without going into HTPC status. (well you could grab a 6670 but its just not worth it last time I checked prices.)

Well, what card are we talking here, is it a 7750 vs a 6990 or a 7750 vs a gt 440 with a 256 bus slapped on?

Bit rate is only the first part of the story.

HD 7770 or HD 6850 is basically a pick em...one does well in one game; the other does well at another game. See what the fps at your rez for your favorite game....that should assist which is better for you. HD 7770 is a bit cheaper than the HD 6850 here in Canada.
