Looking for a video card

[SupyPaw]

Hello!

So I'm looking for a video card around 100 Eur or it's about 125 US dollars, at the moment can't spend more.

Here the stats of PC :

CPU : INTEL PENTIUM DUAL CORE G2130
MB : GIGABYTE GA-H67M-D2 Specs
RAM : 4 GB
PS : At the moment 300W, but I'm thinking upgrade it to about 500W
HDD : SAMSUNG 320 GB
OS : WINDOWS 7 64bit

GPU : ??????



Hope to hear any suggestions soon.

Nvidia 750 Ti

Here's a decent GPU for your system, one that you won't have to upgrade PSU for

But if you do go up to 500watt, eh maybe an AMD 270 or 270x. I think anything above that tier will start to have bottleneck issues with your CPU.

Does ASUS GF GTX750TI would work?

I just got a replacement for my old video card because I wanted to play a few games. I considered AMD R9 270x and R9 280 because they outperform nVidia cards in the same price range, but these cards are huge and wouldn't fit in my case without removing drives.

It was down to the nVidia GTX 760 or GTX 750 Ti. The GTX 760 was also a pretty tight fit in my case and the performance/price was not that great so I got the ASUS GTX 750 Ti OC at Amazon. I'll probably have to dial down the graphics a bit to play at 1920 x 1080, but I think this card will do the job on my older system.

GTX 750 Ti is a great card for playing 1600 x 900 at high.

I'd opt for a model that doesn't need a 6-pin PCIE connector though if you're keeping the 300W PSU unless you're sure your PSU has one.

I would upgrade the PSU and go with something more powerful then a 750ti. You'll get more out of the computer for a longer time.

R9 280 is a good cheap card.

That would cost considerably more than the 100 Eur or 125 US dollars the OP said he wanted to spend.

Good point. If you don't have a PCI-E connector, you might look at the EVGA GTX 750 Ti.
