Replacement for AMD7850

My Radeon 7850 has just died. I'm also moving to a linux system, and I believe that nVidia has better support for that. I will most likely dual boot Windows for gaming if absolutely needed, but I mostly play Dota2 (which is supported on linux).

Any suggestions for a replacement? I'm currently looking at a 750Ti, which looks about the same performance wise as the 7850? Don't think that I really want to go above £150 unless needed.

Happy to consider any other suggestions.
 
The cheapest gtx960 cards are close to £150 - I would get a gtx760 if you don't want to spend more than £150.

However,TBF since you are playing DOTA one of the B-grade GTX750TI cards for £80 should be more than enough.
 
Hey all, thanks for the replies.

I definitely play other games as well (Borderlands, Bioshock, Dishonored, etc), so Dota is not the only requirement.

Def don't need anything crazy - just the ability to play at a decent resolution is fine. Something relatively quiet would be nice as well :)

My current CPU is a i5-2500K
