Best price/performance GPU

chosen

Can’t find a great GPU for r5 1600 around $300 I would like to save the most money for this because I have a very tight budget.

I am running a gt710 on my system right now because it was the only thing at Best Buy and I really wanted to get one to get the rig up and running

i would get a 580 8gb or a 1060 6gb. you can prob find a used 980 ti for about that price point.

For $300, you'd be lucky if you can find a GTX 1060 6GB version. It's probably the best (at least Nvidia) graphics card I can think of. The GTX 1050 Ti 4GB also has pretty good price-to-performance, it's also usually under $250.

Can't say anything about price : performance.

But the absolute lowest limit for gaming gpu in my personal opinion for new(not used or refurbished) is gt 1030 ddr5 or a ryzen 3 2200g igpu.

May not be the a fast gpu but will let you play most game with acceptable render quality and playable fps at hd resolution. Both of which is a massive upgrade from 710.

yeah, but it looks kind of sketchy. if its legit, a 980 ti for 280$, thats an amazing deal.

It is most likely real as it does say it’s shipped and sold on Amazon.com

get the 1060 idk about prices in your country but i dont think you can get the 6g version with 300

if you are gonna be gaming at 1080p the 3g is about 5-10% less fps

there is also the 580 but amd cards are usually out of stock and expinsive

Not if it has been used for mining.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

With this 980ti and r5 1600 how many frames do you think I will get in Fortnite/CSGO and other AAA games?
