Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 650, good budget Graphics card???

[Britanian]

Hi I was wondering if this was a reasonable gpu for the price, all I want from this gpu is to play most games on atleast medium. Would this be cabable of that.

Gigabyte Nvidia GTX650 1gb ddr5 .....................................£80

If this is not suitable does anyone have any suggestions on a good gpu (preferbaly Nvidia) for under £100.

Brit,

You could get something like a 7790 from AMD for that money.

[Sarcasm]

LOLNOPE. I hate to say it, but go AMD.

[FloRolf]

for a tight budget its always better to go amd. Id get the 7750/7770.

[Ryan Leech]

It's not bad, but the AMD equivalent is better. Go for a 7770

[miyabwah]

No.

[Britanian]

Oh, DERP, thanks for the help guys and gals.

[Britanian]

Will the 7750 run the things I said I wanted to run in the first post? Plus is there any particular that is better such as xfx, Gigabyte or asus or are they all the same? 2gb version btw.

Cheers, Brit,

Get the 260x which is the 7790, but with some cool new features

I actually have a 2GB version of this card, and it runs great and performs well.

 

But everyone's going to scream at us to save your money, so listen to everybody else and get an AMD card.

[Karikiro]

I will post some 650 and 7770* benchmark results in a second. *Never mind, didn't save them.

 

But I agree with my predecessors. With AMD you get a more powerful card for the same or less money.

 

If you don't insist on adaptive vsync or maybe even gsync, I suggest you to buy AMD.

 

 

 

Battlefield 3:

playable on high, I suggest medium to low at 1920x1080

 

Any HL2:

highest at 1920x1080

 

Portal 2:

high (no AA, trilinear AF) at 1920x1080

 

Dirt 2:

Ultra (no AA) at 1920x1080

Good idea but unfortuanlty its about £30 over my budget for my gpu.

[Champion-Craig]

Go for the Radeon 7770 best bang for you buck at the price gpu range, im Canadian so i'm not sure what site you use to buy your computer parts but here is one I found:

[SlaughterSmurf]

No, the 650 can't run anything get at least a 650ti or 7790

Brit,

For the low price point, you'll get the best bang for your buck with AMD.

It will run any game at 1920x1080p just fine. The only restriction with that is the level of detail, that can be enabled, to provide your target framerate.
