[SOLVED] dz77bh-55k compatible gpu

[G_dad]

Hi there, I hope you can help me. I have this moterhboard dz77bh-55k with an i7 3770 3.4 ghz and 850W psu. Could you please suggest compatible GPU's between £100 and £200. I know it is not a big budget but that's what I can afford now. I just want to play games in HD without losing a kidney . Thanks a lot

Something like this should meet your needs.

PRADEON AMD GPU Radeon RX550 2/4 GB Video Card, 128-Bit GDDR5 Memory DisplayPort/HDMI/DVI-D PCI Express Computer Game Graphics Card, Mining Videocard (RX550 4G) : Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

There are other offerings in your price range there as well. What do you have now, other than the integrated GPU?

Times are not ripe for GPU shopping.

in that budget all you might find is a gt1030 which is about equal to an rx550 and slightly slower than a gtx660

Hi, thank you very much for your replies. I have a Gigabyte GTX 960 mini, second hand. I can buy second hand. I am not expecting to get a brand new card. I was looking and I can get gtx 780 ti for about £140 in CEX.

That would be a stronger choice. Make sure you have the option to return if necessary.

Thanks a lot. I should have started my question 'Which second hand gpu...?' These are the choices:
GTX 1050 ti, 970, 1060, 1050, 780, 780 ti
Would a Radeon gpu also work? like
RX 570, R9 280x, R9 390, R9 390x, R9 Fury
I am sorry for asking so much. I just know almost nothing about this subject.
All these cards come with two year guarranty

The only one of those Radeons I would recommend is the RX 570. The others are too old, or run too hot.

Of the GTXs, the 1060 would be the best choice, overall.

Are both of those in your price range? GPUs, even used ones, are VERY overpriced these days.

Straight to the point! Thank a lot. They are under £200 in CEX. Sometimes they are available, sometimes you have to wait for one to become available. I always try with them because they give a 2 year warranty, peace of mind.

Thanks again, you cannot imagine how much I appreciate your help. Everywhere else I have gone to, people trying to help shoot ten thousand technical words at you which in the end are of no help to someone like me.

Cheers

With your older rig, and likely gaming at 1920x1080 (or lower), either version will be fine.
