GeForce GTX 650 vs Radeon 7770

[Jubawub]

The Geforce is Superclocked at 1.15GHz, and has 1GB memory - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130828&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=


The Raedon is clocked at 1.0GHz and has 1GB memory - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127664&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=



However, looks can be deceiving. Will either of these bottleneck my CPU ( an FX-6300 @4.5 GHz) or will my CPU bottleneck either of these? Thanks.

Please don't give me a biased answer, just because you dislike AMD. Thank you.

Shows the 7770 winning most of the time, the ti 650 is better. with this card or the 650 there is no bottleneck caused by the 6300 even at stock

So either one? I like the nVidia, though I usually hate them (personal reasons) but this one is smaller, and might actually fit my case It also bundles with a $75 game card, so I think I'll go with this one. It also seems to use less energy than the Radeon ( so my parents don't yell at me for the electric bill being so high )

ive been doing alot of research into this also...overclock a gtx650? or buy a 7770?...i really dont wanna go thru the hassle of driver cleaning but the facts remain...the 7770 is faster in all instances.

 

[swifty_morgan]

open this up and look at the cards. so should the guys that have been opining.

vs a normal 6650, yeah a 7770.

The 650 ti is actually a good mid end card.

It also has an advantage of very low power consumption when playing back video

Just so you know, It is not even involved to go from AMD to Nvidia or the other way around.

You mention fitting a case? what case is it?

@ swifty_morgan, Yeah a 7850 destroys every card listed here.

Some kind of ATX, regular, Mini, or Micro. I'm getting it from volunteer work, so I have no idea

The GTX comes PRE- Overclocked

 

[nukemaster]

I bet your case will be bigger than this <- clicky

Ha I legitimately loled

yes...the reviews ive read says theres 100mhz more headroom...good for maybe another 3fps

If you have the budget, keep an eye out for swifty_morgan's suggestion(7850) as it will kill all the other cards listed(650/7770/650ti).

I picked the 650ti(vs the 7850) to take it a bit more easy on my 300 watt power supply(yeah, yeah Nvidia wants to see 400). And for a media center(thus me being impressed with its low power video playback) it is already a bit of overkill, but I can game on it now too

 

[swifty_morgan]

if i suggested something i must have missed it. i just suggested people open and read the charts.

 

[nukemaster]

My bad, though you wanted to show the speed advantage of the 7850.

After all you can get the 1gigabyte version for cheaper and it makes a good mid/high detail card.

Again, My bad....

Actually both card that you mentioned also a good card... Gtx 650 can overclock to 1.15Ghz. that was very good result for modern gaming like crysis 3. AMD Radeon HD 7770 also a good card.. as you know , yesterday i just buy a new GPU ASUS HD7770 Direct CU TOP ( Overclocked ). Result will be same but i more interest with AMD product because of HD and 3D performance and high texture rate...
