What's the sweet spot in graphics cards?

[Jykäää]

The title says it all

[Askew]

GTX x60

[Slypuphound]

in overclocking?

[Jykäää]

Like bang for your buck with overclocking included

[Wtalk2]

For price to performance it is the GTX 760 and the AMD R9 270/270X right now.

[Slypuphound]

i think the r9 series from amd or the gtx 760 and up

[Createinator]

270/X and GTX X60 are the best bang for the bucks card ATM.

[TheSLSAMG]

R9 280. GTX 760 is a shitty value.

R9 280. GTX 760 is a shitty value.

Are you joking about the GTX 760??

[TheSLSAMG]

Are you joking about the GTX 760??

No, not joking. It is priced at around $250-$260 but performs like cards priced $170-$190. How is that value?

 

The R9 280 costs around $200 and offers a decent advantage over the 760, especially after overclocking.

Is MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti Gaming OC Edition considered to be a pretty good value for  your money?

This. 

 

Soooo many people instantly hop on the nvidia bandwagon despite there being better offerings for the price

 

In UK 770 is like £30 more than 760 so yea it's kind of a ?? card right now

LoL, try $250 and up for the 280 and that's AFTER discounts. Lists price on many of them is at $300.

Yep the 750ti is good value, but see if the R7 265 is at a similar cost as it's a tad faster.

[TheSLSAMG]

Actually, yes. It performs better than it's closest competitor, the R7 260X. If you can get an R7 265 or R9 270 for the same money, I would suggest one of those, but the 750 Ti is a good value card.

I know there are rebates, but try again. $225 after discount and MIR. Who could ask for less?

Did you actually look at what you linked? $249.99 and $239.99 AFTER REBATE.....So yeah, starting at around $250 just like I said, not the $200 that you are claiming. So try again, buddy.

gtx 770 every game I run at max settings has great fps @1080p.

 

*except Titan Fall

[jmaster299]

gtx 770 every game runs at max settings with great fps.

Well, that's not true. Even Titanfall requires 3GB of VRAM for max settings.

First of all, I said around.

 

By the way, ex-mining cards offer even more value. They normally have transferrable warranties, and companies are sometimes lenient about such warranties as well.

 

Oh wait, what is that? A 770 killer for less than $200 you say? Never. How could it be?

It is.

[Jykäää]

Ok, I live in Finland and the prices are little bit diiferent so I can get the 760 for 230 € and the R9 280 for 238 €.

And also how can I reply  or quote another posts?

$259.99 before rebate. Drop $20.00 off from the rebate. $239.99 now. $15 off from Newegg as a sale. Now it's at $224.99.

 

Show me where I said that the GPU would be at $200. Oh wait, you cannot. It's still cheaper than any GTX 760 with decent cooling. And more powerful as well.

better?

 

(see previous comment)

[Sauron]

750ti and r9 270 are currently the best bang for the buck cards on the market. Right behind are the r9 280 and gtx 770.

There is a "Quote" button at the bottom-right corner of every post. Click it and you should be good.

 

As for the GPUs, get the R9 280. You won't regret spending 8 euros on a card better suited to fight a higher tier card.

 

Get it, overclock it and you should be good to fight GTX 770s in performance And the extra GB of VRAM doesn't hurt for games like Crysis 3 and Watch_Dogs.
