I had a GTX 275 which served me well for a good few years but has now died. I don't really need anything more powerful than the 275 (only play WoW really) and don't want to spend a lot of money, if I can get away with only spending £100 I will.

Any suggestions?

I would like it to be more power effecient and if I can get more power all well and good.



Thanks for the help :)
 
CPU is a Q6600
MB is an ABIT IP35 Pro

This is an old PC and at the moment I've no money to upgrade the rest of the parts.

Thanks for the input so far.
 
Im happy to go for a second hand card like a 770 or 7950 if its good value so do you have a rough idea how much faster, percentage wise, they are than the 750ti for example?

Thanks for the advice so far.
 
Its a 600w unit i believe but sadly cant remeber brand although OCZ rings a bell.

The 275 is indeed a 6+6 pin power connector Im looking at the 7970 would the 8+6 pin lay out be a problem or is it just a case of getting an adaptor?
 
Thanks for the help, will check the PSU when I get home and will also start searching for a 7970 on ebay.

Thanks again :)
