It's actually the other way around, nvidia's maxwell series won't be able to use Dx12 properly.

ok thx 

 

ok thx

OP - don't get either card - a used 7950/7970 will offer MUCH better performance. Or at least save up 60$ more and get a 380

I,love my 750ti,

Though at 1080p it can run Shadow of Mordor Medium settings 50+FPS. ( CPU is a bottleneck also ) I wish it could do more.

While I dislike Asus 85$ for a 260X sounds like a good deal

Imagine what a 7970 would do :P

I have my reasons for the 750Ti.

The only true one being is no new PSU, and PCIe power clnnectors were not needed
