New Card

[CyberCrow]

Hi guys
im currently running Ati HD 5770 in x fire, ive got roughly £150 for a new card with the sale from these 2.
What would be the best card to go for compared to the 5770 x fired as i run every thing on max settings at the moment.
Cheers for any info guys

Are you interested in overclocking? If so a 7850 at slightly more than your budget would be a fairly decent upgrade. Other than that you're looking at a side-grade for £150 I'm afraid.

What's the point buying a new card if you can run everything max? Plus for £150 your not going to beat the performance of those 2 cards.

You say 'roughly' £150, so :

There are one or two others that I thought of (nVidia), but in all honesty I'd advise spending a few quid more on the 7850, that way you will see a performance upgrade after overclocking.

That's why im asking here, had the cards roughly 2 years so i thought with new hard ware always coming out it may be time to upgrade.

Been looking at the 7850's an could push to one of those would i notice much difference from the 2 5770's,
Mainly use the system for down loading an encoding although i do run games through it like bf3 an gr.
Also use a Samsung 830 128 SSD.

Which of the 7850 series would be the best one (£200) as some of them have faster core speeds than others :\
