Best gpu for 160$

[BetterGamer]

What is the best GPU that I can buy for 160$? It has to be from newegg. I want to buy this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... I wanna play games like thief,tomb raider,soul suspect,rust,the forest and COD at med-high.

CPU- AMD Phenom quad core 9600
Monitor- Acer x193w at 1680 x 1050 res

If you possibly can give me some other suggestions!

get that card. no nvidia card in that price range will come close for those games, or any games. even if you could get a 660 for 160bucks, the 270 would still beat it, and a 660 is better than a 750Ti.

Will the r9 270 be bottle necked by my cpu?

Newegg currently has a sale on this card, a mail-n rebate: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150605&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= It will do what you want it to do, and you get some extra money.

This card is also on sale on Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127769&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= It's a slightly better card than the one you linked, and it's really cheap.

The one you've linked is just fine, but both the other cards are slightly cheaper, making them a better buy.

R9 270/270X is the best bet for that price, so I'd go for that offer or the one @TeddyMcSwag linked if I was you, it's the best GPU around that price point.

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe your cpu would handle a 270 fine. anything better than a 270 might be pushing it.

Yeah I only have a max budget of 160$

Terrible card now that's it's obsolete. The 270x which is the new HD 7870 can be had for the same price and is a faster card.

curse my want to make my system extremely power efficient it's the same price as the GTX750ti Superclock from EVGA. Well I guess Shadowplay makes for the difference really.

[nick99n]

i would get the r9 270 too

The R9 270 is priced just right. It's almost as cheap as the GTX 750 Ti and R7 265 which both perform worse than the R9 270, so it's a great buy.

That 270 is probably the best gpu you can get for $160
