Go to solution Solved by Drown,

What about the new volcanic island series like the R9-280x? or R9-290x, but you should wait to see.

 

He said that he don't want to wait for the 9000 serie because he can get a cheaper 7000 serie card. Also, he's talking about 7770 and 7850, definitely not the same price range as a R9-290x .. =P

To the OP, go for the 7850, if these are your only two options/choices. ;)

So, need a bit of advice I have a AMD A6 5400K oc to 4.2 stable, (i know not the best but i didn't want to wait) and i will be getting a AMD Graphics card but cannot decide which one, i will not get a 9000 series cause i can get a 7000 card on the cheap and cannot wait to get my gamer head on #PCGamer (haha) anyway deciding between 7770 XFX DD 1GB or Asus DC2 7850 2GB. I will runnning 2 monitors but only one for gaming so any recommenced i would be grateful, and to what extend would my cpu bottleneck these video cards.

 

Thank you

Well I did say Volcanic Island GPU in general, well if he can't wait I guess best bet is 7000 series
