graphics cards so many to choose from I'm lost Nvidia Sield and Geforce Experience

[littletlw]

I recently purchased a Nvidia shield and when setting it up the geforce experience says my gpu in my pc is not good enough.For game streaming it requires a gtx series 600 or higher and the same for in game overlay.And for VR it says series 960 or higher. My current set up is Win7 pro,Mb is MaximusV Formula,Cpu is i7-3770k, 32gb memory,Psu is Corsair HX850 current gpu is a gtx560ti. I'm not a huge gamer like to play a bit and want things to work as they should.I dont have a huge budget $200Can max. Looking for the best bang for my $$

If it has to be nvidia the GTX 1060 6GB is currently the best card in that price range.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX iGame 1080 GPU 8GB GDDR5X VR Ready Video Graphics Card Q4V3 is this card any good

Very good, much better then your 560 ti and more then enough for the Nvidia Shield & VR.

Yeah but a GTX 1080 is going to cost well over 200 dollars.

Doesn't matter much really if you buy from a reputable vendor. ASUS, EVGA, MSI, Gigabyte, Zotac, galax. Probably leaving some out. I would try to get something with an open air cooler rather than a blower cooler if you can.

Will that card work with my current set up

 

[WildCard999]

That's a scam, there's no way there's a 1080 ti for $145...

 

[Dunlop0078]

Yes very much a scam. Legit 1080 ti's are selling for around $1000 USD at the moment.

As Dunlop0078 stated the card you need for Shield/VR is the 1060 6gb. If your prices are in CANADA then a legit card is going to cost at least $280.
