Hd 7770 vs hd 7750

[LazyBonez23]

hi guys just wondering how much better is the 7770 than the 7750, is it worth $30? thanks in advance

Worth is something only YOU can determine.
Both cards are close in capability.
But, the 7770 needs more than a minimal psu if that is important to you.

Well most 7750's don't need a power supply connection, while the 7770's do, that means they need more power and your PSU has to have a 6 pin PCIe power available.

This will give you a rough idea of the differences in the same games, same system, just different cards. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/535?vs=536


With that said, I have the 7750, got it on black friday as the place was sold out of the 7770's and I was going up from a 5450, so anything was an improvement. I can play black ops 2 at 60fps with just about all the details turned on full at 1280x1024 resolution. I play battlefield play 4 free at max at the same resolution.

im not building anything fancy, just a budget system to play my games smootly on like far cry 3, nfs most wanted 2012. im just worried that the 7750 wont be powerful enough, but from what you have said it is worth saving $30, thanks

FAr cry 3 is a brand new game. I bought 2 top line cards are going to be able to even play it, but I bet on low settings and lower res you can play alright.

If yuo can spare the $30, go for it, more power is always better with video.
