Crossfire 5750 question.

[fastamdman]

It's almost my girls birthday and I am wanting to upgrade her video cards. She currently has 2 ati 5750's.

My question is, what single card would crush her dual 5750s?

 

[nurturedhate]

Anything above an AMD 7770 or Nvidia 650/750 non ti is going to be a big upgrade. What are the rest of the system specs are what is your budget?

 

[fastamdman]

No real budget, I might upgrade to a gtx880 when they come out *hopefully next month or october* and then toss her my gtx680. Aaaaaand shes on an amd setup so who cares about specs =P.

well he asked you a simple question so why not list the specs? "amd setup" means nothing.

5750CF = 5850 - CF scaling. So anything faster than a 5850 will be an upgrade. Not completely sure 7770 is faster but R7 260X and 265 are. Else R9 270/270X for more power.

I don't even know what this means...

The gtx880 is a high end card and will be bottlenecked by an older AMD cpu.

re read what he said.

The gtx880 would be for my rig which is powered by an overclocked 4770k.

Honestly, I don't even remember her system specs. I am not a fan of amd anymore and at some point I will switch her over to the correct side.

I'd get her a R9 270 and call it a day. Used for $100 to your door or ~$150 new.

I also like the 880 idea and give her your 680.
