I finished my Gaming Rig not to long ago I have a ASUS mother board that costed somewhere in the upper $200's(meaning it is a capable Mother Board. And I am using a late model Sandy Bridge i5 thats is unlocked. I am finally ready to purchase my video card mainly because Video Game season will be starting shortly and this Integrated Intel Video Card is dismal at best. I have done research in the past on a Video Card. But I am actually ready to purchase now.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: In the next two weeks.
BUDGET RANGE: no more than $200 unless it is a great value for a little more.(the less the better)
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Mainly for Gaming I plan on playing Guild Wars 2 on this beast and I want it to run GREAT!!! Maybe a lil WoW(I doubt it but I'd still want it to run amazingly). Eventually maybe other games but as long as WoW, SWTOR, and GW2 run great thats all I need.
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: I have no GPU I just have a i5 with integrated graphics.
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: Intel i5 the top of the line Sandy Bridge one i think its like 55K or something, one of the better ASUS MoBo's it costed about $250 or $300 when I got it about 4 months ago, 6 gigs of ram.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Best Buy(i get employee discount) or wherever else I can get it for a great price.
PARTS PREFERENCES: (e.g., if you will only use ATI cards, want PhysX card, prefer XFX cards over Sapphire cards, etc., tell us)
OVERCLOCKING:Maybe
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe
MONITOR RESOLUTION: (e.g.: 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1600x1200, 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1200)
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Simply needs to run any MMO like a champ WoW, SWTOR, and especially GW2
