is HD 7750 the best graphics card that doesn't need auxilary power?

[sandro9970]

Also, it would be cool if you guys provided some links with the best price/quality ratio.

Spoiler

On the side note, which one of these cards is the best?:

Yep, there is also the Asus GTX 650-E which does not require power connectors as well, but they are more expensive

I'd stick with Asus in this situation

Also the more expensive GTX 650-E for reference

Thanks for your answer I'll try to get the GTX one, but I'm not sure. On average, what FPS would I get while playing Battlefield 3 on Ultra @ 1440x900?

You're not going to be playing BF3 on Ultra at 1440x900 very well to be honest with you (it's always hard to give estimates but with custom settings with textures on ultra and the rest on medium/high you should get playable results)

650

I listed the 650 as an alternative, but the cheaper 7750 is probably your best bet, it should perform similar if not better than the 650 in BF3

Out of curiosity why do you want one withotu power connectors and what are your budget constraints?

 

[sandro9970]

Thanks Answered my question entirely.

I have a 400W low-quality PSU without external power cords, and my budget shall not exceed 110$.

You can get an adapter for the video card cables, unless you mean you have no free power connectors at all. Many cards actually come with such adapters.

For $100 you can get a 7770 but it's it's really a low quality PSU it may not handle that card well. The 7750 is slower but is very close to the 7770 in price. You may want to stick with the 7750 just to make sure the system is stable.
