New card around £90

[fozzybear]

Decided to get back into a bit of light PC gaming.

My setup is:

Athlon II X3 450
8GB DDR3
Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H
430w Corsair CX PSU

I'll be playing games like BF2, Crysis 2 and other games that don't require steam activation (have had issues connecting).

I was looking at the Gigabyte 7770 OC for around £95. £95 is my max price. I was looking at the 6850 but I'm worried about power consumption. I don't really want to have to buy another PSU.

You'd be fine for a 6850 on that PSU. Decent PSU tbh...

^ comparison between 7770 & 6850. Really not much in it, not sure what the 7770 overclocks like :L

Agreed

6850 will be the better choice than 7770 at that price point
