I have selected ATI Radeon HD6770 1 GB DDR5 as my GPU
Is this GPU future-ready ?
Can i play with this GPU , games , three years from now at atleast medium settings
Thanks in advance !!!!
 
Hi again,

No, it's outdated and will under perform in most modern games even now. Would be better to get the more modern chips.

How much money are you spending Jayk? If you can I would try go for either a r7 260x or a GTX 750ti if you want future ready medium/high gaming!

Check out this chart. The higher at the top are the best GPUs and lower are older/worse - http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/gaming-graphics-card-review,review-32899-7.html
 
Solution
It will run for the next year or so, but as new games come out, you will need to either turn down your graphics settings, or upgrade your GPU to a more powerful one e.g. NVidia 980 or AMD R9 290X both between £200 - £400.

Anything else I can help you with buddy?
 


Don't agree with that at all. GTX 750ti plays battlefield 4 easily at 50-60fps on high settings 1080 res. Not exactly hammering it. For the budget gamer who wants to be ABLE to play most games at medium-ish settings it is still a viable option. If he said he wants to play high/ultra for the next 2 years then yeah I would recommend a 970.

 


You are right, the 750Ti is still a reasonably decent performer in the low-mediumish category with a lot of games of now. If a budget gamer wishes to play in medium settings there's nothing wrong with that. To be fair though, future ready was mentioned so hence assuming in the next couple of years.

Since you chose to compare BF4 high settings which the 750Ti does a reasonable good job in, FC4 and MeSoM are further advanced and will have trouble playing those smoothly enough without the annoyance of render jitters at the same detail levels. I guess using the word hammering is a bit excessive albeit an average of 30odd fps isn't exactly cake either so yes, some games out now 750Ti will struggle on and is it future ready? no.
