1110142 2010-06-14 08:24:00 im about to buy a new graphics card for my system which will be primarily used for gaming and i was wondering what graphics cards you think are good i don't want to spend more than $300 inc P&H, i am going to buy a new high def 22" screen as well to go with it as my old one would not do the new card justice, so far i like the xfx 5770 for $290 and have found some good reviews online but i thought id get a few more opinions before i buy my new GPU, so what do you think? smithinator (15240)

1110144 2010-06-14 08:40:00 lots of good info there but he is only comparing 2 specific GPU's, im undecided on which type to get e.g. 5770/5750/gtx260 etc there is so many to choose from that are under 300 that i thought id ask and also there are so many brands, does it matter? like is the xfx 5770 better than the asus 5770? smithinator (15240)
1110145 2010-06-14 08:44:00 5770 is the only option really. Brand name doesn't matter, just stick to Asus, Gigabyte, MSI or Sapphire. qazwsxokmijn (102)
1110146 2010-06-14 08:46:00 or ATI goodiesguy (15316)
1110147 2010-06-14 08:47:00 so not xfx then? smithinator (15240)
