So I've seen the time has come for me to get a new card for my rig and I am at the point of where I need to pick my parameters are as follows

 

-Quiet

-Somewhat low temps

-Medium to Low power draw

-Back plate or the option to put one on

-great performance at 1080p with high-ultra settings at 50+ fps 

-200-250 usd

 

I very much value your input and this forum hasn't led me astray before and I hope you don't yet this be the first.

Hi there. Move along, n0thing to see here.
