Hallo folks!

My new pc setup:

Gigabyte Z77-D3H
Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K
8 GB XMS3
ASUS Xonar D2X/XDT
Corsair CMPSU-600GUK GS600 High Performance 600W Power Supply
Antec p280 Case


Can anyone recommend a decent GFX card for me, my budget is £150-£200
Was thinking of getting a ASUS GTX660 TI-DC2-2GD5 but I read about some build quality issues on another site.

Casual Gamer Setup
 
I'd take a look at the 7850 2GB version. I have it myself and am able to play games like Far Cry and Battlefield on high easily, when overclocked. It also seems to be recommended a lot on here.
 
A few options depending on your uses..

If you've not got an aftermarket cooler a 7850 + an aftermarket cooler would be the best way to spend £200..

If you have got one id say put an extra few £ in and get a 7950..

Is the card just for gaming? Do you use photoshop a lot or any CAD programs, if you do the 660ti is the best option
 
What do you mean by 'aftermarket cooler'?

Is that an additional cooler for the gfx card?
It's purely a gaming sytem no CAD

I'd remove that link if i were you.
Linking to competitors sites can get you banned.
 
7950 good choice. Sell the 2 free games that come with it and save up to £30 (depending on how much they sell for)
