add or upgrade mid-range gpu

[yuyo12]

hi guys, i`m near to upgrade my gpu, and would like to receive some advice on what is better. i had a 5750, shall i get a 5770 and put them in crossfire? shall i get a single 5850? shall i get a 6000 series card? or maybe an nvidia card in that level of prices?? MAYBE I SHOULD WAIT TILL THE COMPETITION RESULTS, hahah.

anyways, i`m listening replies

GTX 560 Ti

Can you even put a 5770 in xfire with a 5750? Even if possible what would be the point if the more powerful card is bottlenecked by the lower end card? Just get a 5750 or get a 560Ti. I would go for the 560Ti... but I am biased, since it is what I have. : )

What they said. If you're on a budget, though, there's some really good deals on 4xx series going down right now.

Budget? But definitely upgrade.

560 Ti

 

[yuyo12]

even with an amd processor a nvidia gpu is a good option?? i`d heard that this can represent no using 100% the graphics card

 

[ciksas]

You heard wrong.

 

[yuyo12]

ok, then thank you guys, i will have a decision after the compo (there is always a chance to win it) and then i will post some pics.

[ciksas]

If you haven't ordered already, I'd look into this.

I saw this the other day: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/1536...z-shader-1401mhz-480-cores-mhdmi-plus-farcry2

For £210, you get a 480 which is inherently a 570 with a bit more memory. Out of stock atm, but if you can find something similar.

thanks, but i am not in the uk, so the shipping would kill me. thanks anyway.

560 TI would be a nice upgrade for you or for a little less you can get a 6850, 6870.

You forgot to mention the free case heater that come with it

but seriously its good sense to get a gtx 480 and slap a zalman on it with the prices as they are right now.

I have no idea what you mean
