Anyways, budget and current specs?

[TetraSky]

As long as you're not thinking of buying one of those super cheap graphic card that you see on ebay or other websites that sell cheap chinese crap... Because those are fake.

Gee, you can get stuffs without ever working? Are you out of your min... Never mind. I guess magic does exist, you are right.

[Tristerin]

How about we just ignore this post - not getting correct answers from OP

 

The answer is VERY simple, 1 GPU v 1 GPU - 750ti

[lewdicrous]

OP, I'd suggest saving up more money and buying something newer if you're not in a hurry

Saving up is good. Smart purchasing is research research research.

Yes, you can get stuffs without ever working! Whether that be through illegals means or legal means. One has to work smarter, not harder and that takes brain power.

You are right, but your assuming they are children, or they mentioned they are children and dont work. I started working when I was 12 or 13.

Brain power isn't work? Do you honestly think spending 8  hours solving differential equations is lesser work than flipping burgers? School scares me more than my job. 

 

Even if you gonna rob a bank, it is still work.

Googling things became a burden on a lot of people, apparently.

Google is the biggest burden on the interweb.

 

Brain power has different levels of usage.

Intense brain power to little to no brain power, like buying an item for $5 while you have a buyer willing to pay $50 in the span of 5 minutes. Which 4 minutes was taken up by getting rid of your quarters, dimes and nickels that the seller of the 1st item was counting for you.

 

 

 

 

I say its best to save up for a decent gpu that meets your needs now, and a year from now, then cheap out on a gpu.

 

Cheapness costs more sometimes!

Mhmm

If OP buys an outdated card, then they'll have to upgrade it sooner or later, that's if they want to play newer titles; no point in buying twice.

 

I N T E N S E brainpower scares people, but to be fair, any amount of thinking/research is enough to scare the masses..

 

More power to us, I guess...

And common sense is not common. Its exacerbated in this day in age due to many factors.

OP didnt specify age, stop jumping on conclusions that OP is prepubescent, especially given the username. but sure, if you wanna go that way, yeah, the only work out there for kids are those concentration camps. jfc you are brainless.

im just an occasional lurker, stay cool.

At the same price, I'd pick the 660 TI, end of story.  It's just better in every measurable metric except age.
