Need a good GPU for £120-£130

[jasher11]

i play on a 19inch monitor at 1440x900 resolution which is VGA so not the highest end spec monitor. i know i will need a DVI to VGA adapter with most modern cards. but what is the best GPU i can get for highest quality gaming for under £130

I would suggest a 650 ti boost edition, It could play battlefield 3 on ultra with 40+ fps, and crysis 3 with 20 and plus later on you could add another one and come close to a 680 performance.

whats your others Pc specs? PSU CPU etc etc . and a 7850 will be good for you

7790 or 650Ti will be good options.

Try to add another 17 pounds to your budget and get a gtx 660 on scan.co.uk for 147 pounds.

 

[jasher11]

Yeah i would but i mean the limit was originally £80 so to be on £120-£130 is the absolute limit but if i see a gtx 660 i will try get it

Go for a 7850 it is equal to 660 and very easy to over clock and when Oc'd it blows 660 out of the water go for 7850

 

[Reggie Goodwin]

If you could get the 660 GET IT! But for the price you listed, get the 650 ti boost and if you want the 1 GB I would play on 720p to it be better Framerates. 1 GB is not enough for 1080p Gaming

An hd 7850 isn't equal to a gtx 660 :

The 660 is over 15% faster.

mate i have seen these things more than anything in one compariosn it shows 7850 is 3% less powerful than 650ti boost so here it says 7% more please spare me this and 7850 is "almost" equal to 660

The hd 7850 gets beaten by the gtx 650 ti boost in a lot of games by a frame or two. Since techpowerup benchmark a lot of games(over 10) and so they stack up for 7%.
