Listen to @Ivyk . He's from the future.

Next-generation's Candy Crush runs on the Termix 7.4 Engine which requires such GPU for a decent framerate.

You also need to run an octa CPU setup with at least a Terra-Core and 500Yhz.

I live in Singapore. Budget around $350.

R9 280x is okay? I was afraid that my cpu is not too hardcore . Lol

Singapore sells a R9 280x that cheap?

Edit: is that in SGD or USD? If SGD then You can get a R9 270x at max

 280x Is perfect. Should beat a 770 by a bit.

The roof would have to be a GTX 760 / R9 270x, anything higher than that will be bottlenecked by your CPU in many games.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

280x or 770?

280x is cheaper and has similar performance, so go for it, unless you buying online, then that varies

The 770 has a bunch of Nvidia fluff if it appeals to you. Shadowplay, Geforce Experience, PhysX, and so on.

AMD has something that is similar to GeForce experience which is that Raptr app, and the recording is also not that bad on it.
