Looking at £100 cards ( comments please )

Diddums, I have bought three of these at the same time, as they were on a special and fitted a couple to me and the wife's and gave one to my son for his new build and all are still going strong....my sons is running a HD6450 dual DVI running on a quadcore Bulldozer chip with two 17" screens... at the time I bought them they had good reviews...

Dazza I tipped up my grand daughters piggy bank and found a fiver in it in pennies lol
 
I just picked up a 7950 3gb after getting rid of my gtx 970 3.5gb :p

At 1080p its fine..and I mean really fine at least until the new cards come...I'm so impressed with this card.

I was playing Borderlands 2 last night and tbh I struggled to notice I'd downgraded

Cost me £70

OP brand new this is the best card if you're willing to go an extra £14. It will simply wipe the floor with a 750 or 750ti.

I bought one to replace my younger cousins Radeon 5850 and he reports that all games are running at roughly 100% the frame rate as before with higher settings.
 
Thats what I mean, when does it stop!! just £10 extra then another its like being at a car dealers, last time I done that I bought a BMW M3 instead of an X5 boys was I in the doghouse :D

Still can't make my mind up.... :confused:
 
R7 265 was great bang for the buck at £80 here last summer, but at £110 now, there are better choices I suspect.
 
I'm going to wait till the next offers come out on cards and see what's available thanks for all the advice.....
 
Change of plan by 5830 was crying in pain last night trying to play COD in multiplayer so have bit the bullet and purchased one of the cards suggested

Also had to get a new HD for the wife so have given her my 128GB Kingston SSD and have bought a 1TB SSHD 64mb as its only for storage......rude not to at such a good price.
