Hi

Was wanting to get back into PC gaming and play GTA V when it comes out, what graphics card would you recommend ?

I'm currently just using the built in Intel HD Graphics as i've been using the PC mainly for Music, so stability is a must :)

My PC Specs are Core i7 3770K, Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Motherboard and 16GB Ram on a Dell U2412M 1920 x 1200 Monitor.

Don't want the most powerfull card, just something that will play the latest games at 1920x1200
 
How much do you have to spend? what PSU and case do you have (are they powerful enough and big enough to accommodate long gfx cards etc)

My case is a SilverStone FT02 and the PSU is a Corsair 850W. Budget is about £200 but can go higher if needed

an AMD 290 or a Nvidia 970 would work nice for you. A 290 probably could be had in budget, a 970 would cost you a touch more. a 280 would still probably work fine if you wanted a bit of change for your £200, but its a fairly big step down from the 290 :)
 
With such a big game release there will certainly be some website with GFX card and CPU comparisons for it.

But then again can you wait for that on release day or beyond.
