Sub $120 Nvidia GPU Reccomendation

Go to solution Solved by SteveGrabowski0,

Would the older generation impact performance too much?

 

The 660 Ti destroys the 750. We're talking two completely different tiers of cards here.

Hello, I'm looking to get a GPU for my workstation desktop, but my budget is sub $120 CAD. I am spesifically looking for Nvidia to be able to use it for Adobe CS6. My current options are a 1GB GTX 750 (new), and a used 660ti. Any other decent options (I can't get a bigger budget so...) and what would you reccomend?

The 660Ti would be the better option here. More than double the CUDA cores which would bode well for your video editing purposes.

$120 CAD for a 660 Ti is a nice price. Maybe you could see if you could find a 670 for that price, but a 660 Ti walks all over a 750.

Nope. In fact. JayzTwoCents lost some video editing performance when he switched from his three-way GTX 780 setup to three-way GTX 980 setup since the GTX 980 has less CUDA cores.
