R7 265 or 750 Ti

[dassan]

hello guys, i have an old system like Phenom IIx4 940 3Ghz, 3 GB DDR2 rams and OCZ Fatality 550W PSU. My HD 4850 burned and i want to buy a new card. R7 265 or 750 Ti , i wud have bottleneck with these cards? Which one of them i sud get?

The r7 265 is about 10-15% faster. So use that information and compare prices.

Same price range and a good deal faster than either. Your PII would bottleneck it slightly, but nothing worth worrying about.

265 for absolute performance, 750TI for efficiency.

Though that 270 Leyawiin linked seems a good deal.

Yeah, its gone already!

I say 750 cuz my friend has one and its pretty good and OCes good as well. gl

Great deal on the 750 Ti here, under $100AR. Not sure how much the 265 is going for right now, I'll check that in a bit.

7850 (same card) is going for about $60 on eBay.

That's an excellent buy for a new card.

I would go with the 750 TI for the better efficiency, it's a GPU from 2014 while the 265 is the old 7850/7870 (2012),

now the 265 is a little faster most of the time, but from what I've seen the OC 750 Ti's are doing fine and with manual unlocked OC and the latest drivers it's looking good, OC vs OC should be really close.

The Palit 750ti basically ties the 265 performance-wise with a 1202 MHz GPU clock. It's working really well in my HTPC. I found the mini-HDMI output a little odd though...

If you can get it to run at the maximum 1345MHz, the 750TI has great performance at a small penalty in efficiency.

EVGA actually makes one with an ACX cooler and a 1189/1268MHz pre-OC. Requires a 6-pin connector though.

Get the 265, its faster and a 750TI cant touch it.

I have an HD 7850 2GB OC'd to the max Overdrive can do (1050/1450). I just received last week (and sent back) a PNY GTX 750 Ti OC. Its stock factory overclock is 1202 Mhz. Overclocked to 1292/1550 it was about 10% slower than the HD 7850 OC'd (which is basically an R7 265 without boost). Neat little card, but the AMD was definitely better in gaming.

Which R7 265 i sud get? Sapphire dual-x is good?

7850 shoud go to 1150Mhz at least. Get 3rd party Overclocking software which doesn't have OC cap so low.
Also, my 7870 is running 1250MHz on stock voltage and the OC limit in CCC is 1400Mhz for core, which is LN2 range?
