Need advice on best card for my budget.

[.:SAmSuNG:.]

Hi I'm currently have a 260-216 that is pretty old now so looking to get a new card.

It has to be nvidia as the game I play runs so much smoother on nv.

My budget is £150-200 and I'm happy to buy a used card.

My rig is a 2500k @ 4.3
16GB ddr3
750w corsair ax.
Dell u2410 1920/1200

Thanks in advance.

It's a pity your game is so much smoother on nvidia as this card in b-grade is so much more powerful than anything you will get on the nvidia side.

If its nvidia you want then a gtx660 is all you can get on here in your budget.

Second hand maybe you could pick up a gtx670 if your lucky.

What game is it you are playing.

Would a 580 be faster than a 660?

What's the difference between b-grade and normal? Are the b-grades less likely to OC well, or something?

They're returns or refurbs.

Only asking so don't shoot me down in flames-how do you know it's smoother when you are using a 260?

I am with this guy, £200 budget and you are wanting a nv card, doesn't really mixz . You can get a 7870 for £210 and it will smash anything nv has at the same price range.

No offense, but £210 is a rip off for 7870. This is pretty much the close to the price people should expect to get a 7950.

Bump up the budget and get a second hand 670 Brad. Will be worth it to run at that res with dynamic lights on.
