Hey everyone,
I'm thinking about picking up a new GPU—budget is sitting around $667.

Here’s what I'm running right now:
monitor : HP Z23n
PSU: Fortron Hex
Motherboard: MSI B75MA-E33
CPU: i5 3350p
GPU: MSI Radeon HD 7850 OC
RAM: 8GB DDR3

I'm torn between an RX 470/480 4GB or maybe an EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB... honestly, I just can't make up my mind.

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to get some input on these 7850 cards:

The Sapphire Radeon HD7850 1GB vs. the MSI Radeon HD7850 OC 1GB

Look, raw core speed isn't really my main concern—I can tweak that in a few clicks if I have to. What I actually care about is the build quality, how quiet the fans are, and what kind of overclocking headroom we're talking about here.

Also, if anyone has hands-on experience, which of these motherboards is the better bet?

The Asus P8B75-M LX or the MSI B75MA-P45

Again, it comes down to quality. I’m not planning on pushing the CPU to the limit, but I noticed MSI offers a 3-year warranty on their stuff—does that actually mean they're built better, or is it just marketing?
