Max settings

[da rulz]

People, can you tell me which card(nvidia or ati) is just enough to play all games at MAX settings, at resolutions 1080p and 1600 x 900??????(at 60 fps)

You'll never get constant 60 in modern demanding games unless you're running a high-end card and set graphics to low. (Even with that, I still can't guarantee it)

Just to make things easier, this would be the card I recommend based on their price and performance


$380-400
----------
AMD Radeon HD7970
Nvidia GeForce GTX 670


$300-320
----------
AMD Radeon HD7950


$230-250
----------
AMD Radeon HD7870
Nvidia GeForce GTX 660


$200-220
----------
AMD Radeon HD7850 2GB


$165-180
----------
AMD Radeon HD7850 1GB


$145
-----
Nvidia GeForce GTX 650ti


$120-135
----------
AMD Radeon HD7770


$95-110
---------
AMD Radeon HD7750

what abt the gtx 650. how much frames would it give for mordern games.....where does it stand in this list .what abt its price?

 

[Lord Tumnas]

GTX 650 is roughly on par with the 7770, probably below it.
some modern games are more demanding then others, what do you plan on playing?

 

[EzioAs]

The GTX650 (non-ti) performs around the HD7750, sometimes it wins, sometimes it loses, sometimes they're both similar. However, I gave recommendation to the HD7750 because it's usually less expensive albeit slightly.

actually i plan to play quite some games like gta 4,assassins creed series, skyrim etc
but i guess the 650 isn't enough to play them.

It's enough. You'll probably have to run at lower resolutions than 1080p and lower some of the image quality to get enjoyable frame rates though.

1080p, low is playable on a GTX650.

1600x900 is lower than 1080p so you probably can run some settings at medium. You'll have to try playing around with the settings yourself if you want to have the best performance and best image quality.

you can run those games on a 650 but I would say get a 7770 atleast and if your budget allows then get a 650ti.
