Pretty self explanitory but, what are the best sub $150 (USD) gpus on the market and what should I expect (peformance and heat wise) from them?

Get the cheapest 750ti you can find on Newegg or Amazon or whatever. Or, you can check eBay

750Ti, but spend 20-30$ more and get a 270

It is worth it IMO

From what I'm seeing, the 750 ti looks like it, but what's there to expect perfomance wise?

if you can find it : 7850 2gb if you want amd and if its sub 150$ great overclocker, but it has to be good cooler

 

nvm prices are crazy, searching for r7 265 or whatever new rebadge is called

 

edit n2: i guess 750ti it is. get msi or gigabyte for cooling and silence. and overclocking

 

also good deal http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-r7260x2gd5ocv1

You could probably get at least 50-60 fps on medium settings @ 1080p for the majority of games currently available.

 

EDIT: If you wanted, you could wait and see if the R7-265 actually sells for the intended $150 MSRP, but it's uncertain.

I was able to get a 650 Ti boost 2GB for 125$ on sale (lucky) So I would look around for one. If not you can TRY to find a 750 Ti for under 150. I wouldnt want less than 2GB of vram though. The performance between the 2 is similar but the 750 Ti is very low power. The 650 Ti Boost can SLI though.
