Title: Recommend me a graphics card. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Tuesday, October 8, 2013, 16:19:01 Used to be into all this hardware shit but time's moved on and I know nothing anymore.
This is my motherboard : http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M3N72D/#overview Looks like my only option for expansion is PCIe. I used to have an Nvidia 9800GT so I'd like something better than that, not sure of budget really... probably less than £100. It's nearly time for a whole new PC but I'm hoping a new GPU will keep the old dog ticking along for another 18 months or so. I'd like to be able to play Rome 2/Fallout/World of Tanks at a decent spec. Thanks. Title: Re: Recommend me a graphics card.

No idea but they have good deals on here.... Title: Re: Recommend me a graphics card. Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, October 8, 2013, 16:46:56 GTX 650 at around £80 or an overclocked factory setting GTX 650 about £90 but if you can stretch to it a HD7850 at £115 is better at 1080p gaming. All will give very playable frame rates at 1920x1080.
Title: Re: Recommend me a graphics card. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Tuesday, October 8, 2013, 16:56:26 Cheers both, got a GTX 650 ti at Amazon for £72 (Inc Assassin's Creed 3). I also had a £10 voucher so £62 :)
Long live the TEF advice section. Title: Re: Recommend me a graphics card. Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, October 8, 2013, 17:00:25 GTX 650 ti is a nice card, make sure your PSU can cope with it, I would suggest a 550w but you could just about get away with a 450w if its a good 80+ efficiency one.

I see they have a Gigabyte GTX 660ti OC for £90 on there right now Title: Re: Recommend me a graphics card. Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, October 9, 2013, 11:03:35 That card has basically doubled in price over night! Glad I bought yesterday
