New Video Card

[Ironwatsas]

My old Video card seems to be hitting the skids, it seems.

Normally I wouldn't bother mentioning such because my opinion of most of Discovery lies somewhere between "Hobos" and "Jay-Z" (in descending order), but I suppose why the hell not in this case.

Now, I'm currently upgrading from a GTX 460, which came original to the computer and is now attempting to die. I've been looking at the GTX 750 Ti which seems to be in my price range specifications, but I'd like some opinions to consider before actually spending money for it.

My PC box has a combined power output of 475 watts and about 8.5x5 inches of physical space. Budget is in the neighborhood of ~$200 USD (laundering Euros would be too much of a pain because the Swiss Banks don't want to co-operate anymore).

I'm not looking for anything extravagant obviously.

All that begins must end.

From what ive read, seen and heard the 750 Ti is definitely one of, if not the best low cost high efficiency graphics cards available.

I stick with ATI graphics cards. I wear mine out usually but I get good results with them.

I don't always play Discovery, but when I do, it's because my 8600 GT can't play anything else.

I've been using an ATI HD5770 for years and it's still better than some newer cards. Running it on a 470W PSU and all.

Odd that.

I too run a 5770 as well and it is a npnp card, it's certainly very good for it's age.

I've yet to have a problem graphics wise running any game I've bought/installed recently.

Yeah, I have issues with Crysis, for example.

check the ampage on the 12v, make sure it can cope with whatever gfc card you get, last thing you want is a popped psu


i would recommend getting a proper gold certified gaming psu aswell, like a 600w corsair
