Looking forward to buying a new GPU. - Strichev - 05-13-2011

Ok, so my budget is roughly 200 Euros.

Give me suggestions, ATI, NVIDIA anything. I want to expand my horisont before I buy one.

460GTX. Atleast that's the one I'm getting since my 470GTX died. Pretty much around 150 Euros (Evga one, best company imo), which is already OC'd. So yeah, 460GTX is pretty much the best you can get for this price.

I'd get a GTX560 or a HD6950 for that money. Difference is pretty small, so its just what brand you prefer.

Forgot about the 560 ... a monster, too. Eats up a bunch of energy though.

HD6950( you need 500 W min PSU) otherwise you might need to buy PSU as well.

well, I'am (was?) an ATI user but I'm dissppointed of them since AMD took 'em over. Mainly because of the new drivers and issues related. So I'd suggest a GTX560 instead.

if there are any problems with this card you should get a better support. (ATI support sux a big way, had to deal with 'em for some times :/)

Seriously, I'm using ATI for years now and I'm very disappointed. the simple fact that more ppl are using NVIDIA and more games are optimized for it makes the choice pretty simple atm...

NVIDIA and ATI in a pure hardware-race again. I hope they'll get it sometime: that it isn't about hardware only but also about the implemention. This really sux. I'd like to buy an ATI but I won't...
