[ShotDC]

[vkadurin]

Definitely update ! Can you tell me what is your budget?

[Jay123]

A 5450 is not much better than many on-board graphics, they're often just used for their output options. Something around a 7850 should be good but we really need some more info. What resolution is the TV? What FPS are you happy with? All your current PC specs? Also, do you know the response time of the TV?

It depends on what you want to play as well.

FIrst thing to do : Upgrade ram to 8 gb!

Get yourself an HD 7870 Tahiti LE or spend a bit more and get a 7950, best performing card in their class bar none.

I would suggest you waiting for NVIDIAs upcoming 700 series of video cards and see what performance we'll get out of them.

[Brandonsr]

That monitor is only 1366x768. A 7790 would be a great choice.

 

If you have intentions on going with a higher resolution in the near future you may want a faster card. 

[Glaith]

7850 or 7870

[ShotDC]

JEJEJEJ ok so i have 8gb of ram, sorry my bad... and my top budget is 200 to 400$ 

[ShotDC]

so i finally decide to get a 7950 fro saphire for 324 $ and in the future ill upgrade my monitor thanks all for the answer you really help me alot

More Ram will not increase frame rate. That said HD 7850/70 are great vaules and come with lts of AA games.
