So which graphics care should I get?

[Griffsbrown]

So here is my build:
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Griffsbrown/saved/1XEl

So it runs things surprisingly well right now but I want max performance out of it, which means a graphics card. Now this is my first build so I don't know much about graphics cards so I'm wondering what you guys recommend. I dont want to spend more then like 150$~ so with that said, anyone have an recommendations?

What's your max budget for this entire build? (not just the budget for the GPU).

EDIT: Oh, you've already built the PC. Nevermind.

This - http://us.ncix.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=82706&vpn=01G-P4-3655-KR&manufacture=eVGA

150$ on the dot.

great value for you money, and should go well with your build

So a friend reccommended this:
http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Radeon-PCI-Express-Graphics-11201-17-20G/dp/B00A0HZOEA/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1373856880&sr=1-1&keywords=Sapphire+Radeon+HD+7770

What do you guys think of this?

 

[JRAtk94]

Nowhere near as good as the one I suggested. 😛

The GTX 660 I suggested will play Battlefield 3 @ maximum settings @ 1080p @ ~50fps.

That 7770 your friend suggested will probably get around ~25fps in the same situation.

Ok so at the least I have it narrowed down to 2 I guess. The one you linked:
http://us.ncix.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=82706&vpn=01G-P4-3655-KR&manufacture=eVGA

And the one the other guy linked:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133473&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Desktop+Graphics+Cards-_-N82E16814133473&gclid=CNiM6ee9sLgCFQsV7AodgEgALA

After looking at them both they actually look very similar. Whats the differance other then price?

Comparison between the two cards - the GTX 660 is the clear winner.

Ok so you have so helpful. One last question.

You don't think it will bottleneck with this cpu (the one I'm using: AMD A10-5800K 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor), right? Because that is the last thing I want. I have heard some people say this cpu bottlenecks easily so that's what I'm worried about.

 

[JRAtk94]

I'm not sure. Possibly. It probably won't be too significant though

Alright I will take your word for it lol. Thanks much for the help

No worries, mate.

Enjoy
