Difficulty Choosing between GTX 650 or HD 7770

[hassan_8727]

Hi guys!

My system specs are:
Inter core i3 2100 3.1 GHz
Kingston 4GB DDR3
ASUS P8H61ML-E
450W PSU. Local brand.
22" DELL LCD. 1650x1080 Resolution.

Since my budget is tight, so I am considering to buy 1 of below cards.

1-http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-GTX650-2GB-128Bit-GDDR5-VGA-DVI-HDMI-PCI-Express-3-0-x16-Graphics-Video-Card-/141354313556?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item20e95fa754

2- http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-AMD-RADEON-HD-7770-2GB-GRAPHICS-CARD-PCIe-x16-HDMI-DISPLAY-PORT-DX5MJ-/171414764073?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item27e91dba29#viTabs_0]

Okay so i need Answers of some of these questions. If possible, Kindly reply in sequence to all.

1- which one will be able to run on my computer easily? I can't upgrade my PSU.

2- regarding gaming at 1650 x 1080 res, which CARD will suit better for the latest games? e.g, GTA V and other latest ones?

3- The GTX 650 card is made by "NVIDIA". Is it better performance wise if a card is made by NVIDIA or other companies like ASUS, GIGABYTE etc?

4- The HD7770 card says "DELL AMD". What is the Meaning of putting DELL in the start? Will it have greater performance than the cards made by HIS/Sapphire or other companies?

5- The HD7770 card is in OEM packing. Is it like "brand new" or is it refurbished by someone?

1 - GTX 650 does not require an auxiliary PCI-E power. This would be a safer choice for your power supply. The GTX 750 Ti would be much with the same power usage better if you can afford the extra money.
2 - HD 7770 is faster than the GTX 650. GTX 750 Ti is much faster than both.
3 - Asus, Gigabyte and other companies make quality cards with GPUs from AMD and Nvidia. No particular advantage to a Nvidia branded card.
4 - Dell has branded this card to work with a Dell PC. This is referred to as an OEM card. Often these cards have lower specifications than those from other manufacturers.
5 - OEM means Original Equipment Manufacturer. This just means Dell manufactures and sells computers and these parts are not generally for individual sale. The card is probably new but will come without a retail box, manuals, adapters, etc.

First of all, Thank you for your quick time.

3- Does it means "NVIDIA"/"DELL AMD" cards will have lesser LIFE than the other manufactures?
4- The DELL BRANDED CARD won't work in my PC? I have listed the specs above.

3- We can't predict how long a card will last.
4- The detail on your power supply does not give enough detail. To run this card you need a supply with a rating of 20A on the +12V rail and a 6-pin PCI-E power connector. If it does not have the connector, you will need a molex to PCI-E power adapter like this:
