Upgrading graphics card from 8800GTS 512MB for Black Ops 2

[regi94]

Hi guys,
I am currently looking to buy a new graphics card to play Black Ops 2(when released). I am on a very tight budget of around one hundred pounds, and was wondering if i could get some help in what card to get.

I only want it good enough really for medium settings etc, and playing on a 720p monitor.

At moment i was thinking about purchasing a AMD Radeon 7770, but am not sure on what this card can do, please help.

Cheers

It's not going to take much to get medium setting's @ 720p. Actually you should be able to max out the game with very little money. What's your budget?

Hi there, around £100-120 would be the maximum i would spend.

For a tiny amount more you could get a 7850
(159.99 after rebate ~100 pounds)

7770 is a good choice though

do Newegg ship to the UK? thanks for the reply, and would this be up for the job, and a few more games such as guild wars 2, MoH warfighter etc.

A 7770 should be fine for your purposes and budget - this card is a little nicer than the Sapphire you linked: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-DirectCU-CrossFireX-Technology-Eyefinity/dp/B007RS49EG/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1351191006&sr=1-2

The 7770 will suit you just fine at those resolutions.

the 7850 really isnt that much more in the uk, even at 720p its still worth spending the extra £20-40

Btw black ops is going to be awesome but my guess is you will prob be able to play it on high even tho they adding more to the gpu this time around but its not a gpu stressful game at all.
