I have now a GeForce GTS 250(1 GB with 256 bit memory bus DX10) and i want to play Battlefield 4 (multiplayer) but the game shutters a lot and when i play i have very but very low fps so its almost very hard to play it!! i tried to find a cheap GPU because i don't want to spend much on this, i found the GeForce GT610 2GB LP (2GB with 64 bit memory bus DX11), currently this GPU costs 50 euro in Greece so i thought this will be good buy but when i asked a friend told me that the memory bus is very low and GT610 will not make any difference and its actually worst than i have now!! the question is : does memory bus have much of a difference?

try a gtx 460 or hd 7750 you could probably find them the same price and will double the performance

the gtx 460 as i saw is way too of from my budget (almost 240 euros) but the hd 7750 is almost 80 euros and i may afford this but the question is same the hd 7750 has 128 memory bus which is less than my current one from GTS 250!is this memory bus so important ?

So a HD 7770 is about 50 to 75% better then the gts 250 http://www.skroutz.gr/c/55/kartes-grafikwn-vga.html?fro...
and the gtx 650 ti is even better with all of the nvidia features just a little over 100 euros http://www.skroutz.gr/c/55/kartes-grafikwn-vga.html?fro... about the 128 bit bandwith the more recent the generation the better usage of the bandwith like add more butter on the tunnel so more stuff get though the bandwith like 128 bit is equivalent to a 256 bit form that generation and better gpu architecture

i have put in my signature my PC specifications , my only question is the PCI express 3.0 that wants and i don't have it, as for the e-bay yea its cheaper but with the shipping fee its same prices

it doesn't matter if you have pci-e 2.0 a 3.0 card can go in it just make sure its x16 pci-e slot but i assume it is since you had a gts 250 so you good
