Best Nvidia GPU (nvidia shield)

[ANDYSUCCAMO]

Hi guys,

i recently purchased an nvidia shield and being an idiot didnt realise i wouldnt be able to use the streaming feature (the reason why i brought it) without an NVIDIA GPU.

i currently have a MSI Radeon R9 290 Gaming Edition 4096MB, whats the best nvidia card i could get that is on par with this?

thanks.

780/780ti

Maybe even a used 690

The 780 runs about par with the 290, if you wanted a little upgrade then the 780ti.

How much of a performance increase will I see from a 7970 to a 780ti?

Probably around 50% give or take depending on game.
