|
|
I recently bought this build from a friend of mine..
Intel Core i5-2500k
Asus P8P67-M
2x2GB G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600
Hitachi 1TB 7200 RPM
I really can't decide on what VideoCard i should get.

Depends what you'll use it for.

More specifically, which games? If you're playing counter-strike 1.6, or some yet-to-be-released game, it makes a big difference.
Generally speaking, the 460 is pretty solid for what's out there right now, but it depends on (1) which games you're playing (2) how you expect them to perform, and (3) how much cash you're prepared to part with

The GTX 560 (note: not Ti, to fit budget) should be your best bet, having nice performance along w/ CUDA support for editing. The 460 is cheaper and has lower memory and clock speeds, but they both have the same 336 shaders.

Only if you want to overclock your videocard and you are not playing games with tesselation, or the nvidia favored games, otherwise I agree.

if your playing most games at 1080 with tessellation with high settings you most likely wont be getting that high fps tessellation is too new to really use imo
