GPU Buying Guide - (Read first post) in Desktops ·
I’m torn between grabbing an AMD Radeon HD 6790 or a GTX 550 Ti. Still got some digging to do...🙂It'll probably end up being the 550 Ti, though. I don't think that 6790 is actually going to fit inside my case.

Do you think I could actually run Battlefield 3 or Crysis 2 on this setup, maybe even on medium settings? 😁

Hey there! Good day to you...
I'm looking for a new graphics card... somewhere around the... $333
My current rig...
The e6750... man, that chip brings back some serious memories... just sitting there thinking about those old builds.
Just an old HP motherboard with an Intel Q35 chipset... nothing fancy, just sitting there...
Just 3GB of RAM... barely enough to keep things moving these days...
So, I was looking at this Cooler Master 400W power supply... just one of those things you start thinking about when you're tinkering around with an old build... turns out they're pretty decent for basic setups... nothing crazy, but solid enough if you aren't trying to run a NASA supercomputer or anything like that... just a little something to keep the lights on...
Right now, I'm rocking a 7900GS with 256MB of RAM... obviously running on PCI-E... 😁
Just picked up an HP L1908 19" monitor... runs at 1440x900. Solid little thing...
So, I've been sitting here thinking... what kind of GPU would actually be the best move for me right now? I was leaning towards picking up a GTX 550 Ti, or maybe something else in that same ballpark... just weighing my options...
I guess there's really no point in grabbing something more powerful... I mean, she wouldn't even be able to touch the performance of a better card given her current PC setup and that monitor resolution. It just wouldn't make any sense...
Does ATI have anything that hits that same level?...
Thanks for all the replies!
