Hey guys! I'm going to buy a budget card and I'm choosing between an MSI R7 265, Sapphire R9 270 Dual X, and ASUS gtx 750Ti. Where I come from, (Philippines) these cards are similarly priced. My specs are : 

 

AMD A10-5800k

ASUS F2-A85M LE

Corsair 8gb 1600mhz red

WD blue 500gb

generic PSU (no 6pin adaptor)

 

I'm also planning to swap out my old generic PSU to a seasonic S12 or and EVGA 500B or anything that has 500w+

 

Any suggestions on what to buy? 

 

EDITED : ASUS R7 260x is also an option because I play my games in 768p resolution.

From what you offered, get the 270.

My arsenal: i7-9700k Gaming Rig, an iPhone, and Stupidity.

He said a 270 dual X (dual X being a cooler), not a 270X.

Oups. I could have sworn I read 270x. Still same thing. Get a 270 and overclock it to 270X level. ;-)

 

Sorry for that.

The 750 Ti is about as fast as an R7 260X, so I sure wouldn't buy it if you can get an R9 270 for the same price. The 270 is actually a great entry-level 1080p card, and it's only about 100 MHz away from literally being a 270X, so it's easily the best deal of those three.

 

The 260X is probably fine for most games at 1366x768, but I'm sure a 270 could keep everything pretty much maxed at that resolution. I don't know what the local price difference is, so that's up to you.
