Upgrading Graphics Card

[Zektbach]

So yeah, I'm currently using HD Radeon 6570 1GB DDR3

I'm planning to upgrade it with a new somehow gaming graphics card with a budget of $75

 

My motherboard is Asrock n68c-gs fx

Ram: Kingston Hyper X 4GB 1600Mhz

Processor: AMD FX Bulldozer 4100

6970/7850/7870? dont know the prices in Philippines.

[david cassar]

In the us for under 75$ you can get an r7 250x (hd 7770). Its going to be much better than your 6570.

No. That is very bad, its as bad if not worse than your 6570. Stay away from it.

[Zektbach]

Sapphire R7-250 Videocard with BOOST 2gb-128bit Pcie DDR3  =  $95

 

ASUS HD7870 2GB GDDR5 256BIT = $405

 

May I ask, does my motherboard supports DDR5 graphics card?

Linus actually already covered this specific card, and others like it:

 

An analogy that he used in one of the comments (that I wished he had used in the video itself)

 

Buying this card is like buying a Halloween sized candy bar for $0.80 when you can get a full size one for a dollar.

An r7 250 would be a bit better. Performance is similar to something like an hd 7750. Also motherboards with a pcie x16 slot will support any graphics card be it ddr5 or ddr3. Whats the price of an r7 250 ddr5 or a r7 260x?

R7 250 = $105

 

R7 260 = $147

Save up for the r7 260. Its going to be much better than your 6570.

I would love to, But I really need a new graphics card.

The reason is my current graphics card is having a bit of a problem, fps issues, my pc keeps crashing (green pixels everywhere) .

Any graphics card with medium settings in CS:GO will do lol

 

*How about this one?

POWERCOLOR HD7730 1GB GDDR5 128BIT

or

PALIT GEFORCE GT640 1GB GDDR3 128BIT

ZOTAC GEFORCE GT640 1GB DDR3 128BIT SYNERGY EDITION

INNO3D GEFORCE GT 730 2GB DDR5 64BIT

MSI GEFORCE GT630 2GB DDR3 128BIT

EVGA GEFORCE GT630 1GB DDR3 128BIT

How much does it cost ? If its the same price as the ddr5 r7 250 then get the 250.

In that case I would get the 7730. Also is the hd 7750 or hd 7770 available for under 110$? If yes they would be worth it over the 7730. If not stay with the 7730. 

[KamiKatze]

How are the chances of getting a used card in the philipines? A HD 7850 would be great for that price.

VGA Sapphire HD 7750 1GB 128bit GDDR5 = $102

VGA Sapphire HD 7750 2gb 128bit DDR3 = $98

VGA Sapphire HD 7770 1GB GDDR5 128bit = $114

VGA Sapphire HD 7770 Vapor X 1gb gddr5 128bit OC Edition = $141

I would really advise trying to get that hd 7770 for 114$. Its basically twice as fast as the 7730 for only 30$ more.

A lot, but I'm afraid I'm more of a brand new type than to get a used graphics card tho

So wait, 7770 or VGA Sapphire R7-250 1GB DDR5 w/Boost Full 128 Bit

The hd 7770 is much better than the r7 250.

Alright, I think I'll get that. Thanks!
