SO.... if i were to use a pc for mostly watching 1080p movies and anime and tv shows.

and do some online mmorpg like TERA Rising.

 

what graphic cards would you guys reccommend between a 100 and 170$ or 155 euros.

 

and would the r9 270 (X or not) out do a GeForce GTX 750 ti (or what would you guys reccommend for the budget + activities as mentiond above?)

 

cuz a 760 would be way overpriced for me idem for the 280

im pretty tired looking for a budget graphic card and am reluctant about buying used stuff. and does it make that much of a difference.

so yeah.

 

if you could give a short explanation of your choise that would be great.

 

thnx 

 

EDIT: 

 

ofcourse i found the case for just 30$ and maybe a i5 4590 and the storage i already got a seagate 1 TB external drive which i will be using for mass storage and maybe go for SSD for the speed in total i don't wanna spend more than 600$ or so, like 550 euros in that corner.

for about150-170$ the 270 or 270x is the best option and it performs better than the 750ti by quite alot

AMD Athlon X4 750k; Gigabyte F2A88XM-DS2; 8Gb Corsair XMS 1600 Mhz; AMD Hd5670 1Gb DDR3; Bequiet E6-600W; W7 Ultimate x64

Dell Vostro 5470: i5 4200U Nvidia GT740m 2Gb 14" 1366x768 Kingston V300 120Gb

Alright, the only thing I would personally change is the Power Supply to a 500B from EVGA and a 270 will do more then fine

You can add an SSD later or if there's one on sale.
