Hi Guys,

Im after a new GPU, budget is only about £200.

I play nothing too taxing, mainly eve online, Path of exile and a few other
mmo's.

Should i try and push my budget more, should i wait?

Thanks in advance and sorry for another one of threads!!

I think resolution will be a factor in your choice. What do you game at, 1080p? Reckon a r9 280 or gtx 770 would be good at that res. But if you want to go a bit further on your budget, then many will say go for this: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-039-IN&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1010 This card can compete with a 780ti when clocked, or so I am led to believe.

Edit: Take a look at this review for the overclocking results of this card. A different vendor, but the same card. for £50 extra over your budget, makes it a no brainer imo: http://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/zardon/msi-gtx-970-gaming-4g-review/21/

Hi
I'm in the same boat, and as nice as these 970 cards are , soo tempted, but I want to stick to under £200 so was thinking of this
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-220-XF&tool=3

I'm upgrading from a 7870 and also game at 1080p

My brother has a 280x and suits just fine for bf4, grid autosport etc etc

With the price drops was thinking something along these lines:

That's a great card for the money and a bargain since the price drops.
