A Good Solid Upgrade?

[Tommy Prak]

What would be a good replacement for my current graphic cards ( 2 Gigabyte Radeon HD 5770 SOC), with a budget of $200.00.

My specs/
AMD FX 8150 @3.9ghz
Corsair XMS3 8gb
2x Gigabyte Radeon HD 5770 SOC
ASUS Sabertooth 990FX
Corsair TX850m

I agree with maxalge. GTX 960 will be a huge upgrade for you.

Good luck!

Ok, what would you think, in the future, go SLI? or do you have another GPU in mind, perhaps GTX 970, help me in the long run

If you were willing to buy used, (not for everyone), you could get yourself a 290x. 200 is the price I see for used ones around here. Just my suggestion. 😛

I don't mind used, used means that it worked lol 😀

Well a 290x is probably the best you would be able to grab if you're willing to go used. Some would also argue 970.

if you grab a used one make sure it is a MSI or ASUS.


Both those companies have warranties that are tied to the card itself, i.e. even if you buy used you can RMA if it ever stops working.

I think it starts when the card was made, MSI is 3 years from manufacturing date for example.

i would still go for 280x over a 960

Another question. Would it be best to run off a GTX 960 or Crossfire 2 Asus R7250X-2GD5 Radeon R7 250X ?

a single 960 would be a lot faster

If you do not mind buying used, I happen to know someone in the market wanting to get rid of a Asus DirectCU II GTX 770 2GB for a similar price...

Just sayin'...

Good luck!
