Opinions on the 7770?

[aokigahara]

I think I'm just going to settle for a Phenom II x4 965, so I decided to get a Radeon graphics card instead of an Nvidia. What are your opinions on the 7770 with a Phenom II x4 965? Should it run well together? Can I play the latest games on high settings with this pair?

Depends on your monitor res I would suggest if you want to be able to max out all current games a 7850/7870 depending on your psu though

I'm on a bit of a budget, so I went with some relatively 'cheaper' parts.

RAM: 8gb

and of course an aftermarket cpu cooler and a power supply that leaves a little space for upgrade.

if you want to go cheaper forget about maxing games on mid settings though this would do http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102993 or.... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127664

This is the card i think you should buy

It's a bit faster than a HD 6870 it will also run cooler and quieter.
I know it's pretty expensive but it's worth every penny.

The nice thing about the 7770 is you get near identical 6850, for less then that card. It's also the fastest performing card around $100. (Nvidia's 550TI is slower then the 7770.) It won't max out newer games but it can provide some good performance. If it's what the budget allows then don't feel bad about getting it.

Guys i think we are getting ahead of our self here Deemo13 asked the best question we really can't recommend him nothing other than a 7750 safely till he tells us his psu make and model
