Graphics Card Suggestion

[IndioBravo]

Hello Techtippers,

 

I currently own an EVGA GTX 760, an intel i7 2600 and 8gb of RAM. But, as many would have guessed, I NEED MORE POWER. I´m already getting less than 40 fps on most recent games. My first thought is to upgrade GPU, so here I am, asking you for suggestions on a better GPU that is between $250-275.

 

Thanks! I´ll wait for your suggestions.

i'd probably get a 1060 6GB

RX 580 8GB if you can find one at MSRP. Better than a 1060.

if you can find a 8GB RX 480 or 580 in that price point then go for that however thst might take some time to find one, if your looking to buy the card in like the next day or so then i'd go with the 1060 6gb

I would recommend a Nvidea GeForce GTX 1060 6gb. That's the card that I have, and it runs games like PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS at a solid 60fps on high settings.

Perfect. So the 1060 it is. Now, between these three models?

I would say the first one. Sure, it's more expensive, but the extra performance you'll get out of that extra fan in the future if you choose to overclock will be worth it. Also, it looks cool.

The 1060 6gb tends to be overpriced still and not that much better than the 1060 3gb honestly but it's just about the only decent deal.

 

If you're willing to go used, people have reported deals on 980ti cards for about 280-300 and such and that would basically kill all current options and even the 580 and by a lot. But well you know what you're getting into with a used card.

Only buy a used GPU with warranty still available. (Most companies will transfer a warranty and 2nd owners do not need fret)

IMO.

For an i7 2600, most guys here have suggested the GTX 1060 6Gb. I'd say that yeah, a GTX 1060 3GB isn't really worth it given how close the price is, and the 4GB  GTX 1050ti might cut it (either way that CPU is old), not to mentioned RX 580 prices. You should look to upgrade your CPU soon, maybe even Ivy Bridge but preferably Ryzen or Coffeelake, whoch ever one looks more enticing after you upgrade your GPU and find the CPU now to be very limiting.

True, and thats the reason im getting the 3gb one

 

239 euro vs 420 euro ( ones that are in stock )
