750 vs 780

Hey guys,

I have posted about this topic a few months ago, but I have recently found an offer on good deals on both the gtx 780 and an MSI 750. Here are my computer specs: Dell Inspiron 530 desktop. With 8gb ram, stock motherboard, 300w power supply (was told by a Dell rep), and a Pentium Dual Core CPU. I think that the power consumption is going to be fine, but I do not know if I have a PCI-Express slot available or another 6-pin connector.  I think I can run the 750 just fine, and I am aware of the bottleneck with CPU. However I was curious on if I could handle the 750. I have been offered both for a combined total of $150.

Thanks for the help!

wait you are getting two GPU for 150 dollars?!

 

damn i will grab it

 

run the 750 till you get a better rig to run the 780

 

but be sure to test the 780 is really working before you sink the deal

 

sometimes it can be too good to be true

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

bring it to a PC shop to test or install it into your buddy's gaming rig with a good PSU

CS GO could run with a low end GPU

I run Csgo on my laptop with an i5 4210m and a GeForce 820m at 120fps on low settings and like 60 on high-ultra. The 750 is more than enough but that CPU will bottleneck it.
