I would get 7770

nice choices, in anandtechs benchmarks 6870 and 7770 seems to almost equal with 6870 beating it little bit but when think about their driver revision at the time its old go for 7770 with new drivers it beats 6870 and overclocks a lot

[WoodenMarker]

The 7770 is arguably the single best bang for buck gpu at this moment. Go for it.

Why not save yourself another 10 - 20 bucks and get a 7790. It overclocks quite well too and outperforms the 6850 and the 7770. It draws lesser power than the 6850 about the same as the 7770

because in my country the change of dollars to pesos, its really bad :/. so  the 7770 cost me $1200 pesos, and the 7790 cost me $1900 + shipping , the 7770 its on my city the 7790 doesnt

Ah I see. The 7770 would be your best bet than. It's a pretty decent low - mid range card and outperforms the NVIDIA equivalent

And the Never Settle Bundle is always nice on top of that

7770 or 7790 is the go I would say. If you are gaming on a 1080p screen however you should try and get something with 2gb of Vram.

 

What games do you play or want to play?

Ok, I would really suggest saving some extra money to buy a 2gb 7850 (if at all possible) or 2gb 7790. Also, overclocking is advised.

really its my limit, im  a student so  doesnt have a big budget :/

[TechFan@ic]

The 7770 is a great card, it also overclocks like a beast !

[lautaro_busto]

ok. last question. wich assembler?. msi saphire or xfx with core edition. i know that this vga runs hotter the msi has dual fan so i gues thar should be the choice but xfx its a core edition (dont know the diference with standard).
