Hey everyone, I'm looking to buy a new video card for my PC, I know you guys will need to know some things but I didn't want to put up a bunch of unnecessary specs, anyway, can anyone recommend a good low-fair priced video card? Thanks in advance.

What's your term of 'Low-priced', you'll also need to make sure your Power Supply can handle it.

If you're looking for a decent card with exceptional performance, I would look into these types of cards.

Radeon HD 7750
Radeon HD 7770
Radeon HD 7870
Radeon HD 7850
GTX 650 ti turbo boost
GTX 660
GTX 660 Superclocked
GTX 660 ti


But, I haven't looked into the latest and greatest graphics cards recently, so I may be incorrect.

Kyle93 wrote Requesting a list of parts (Simple form)

A simplified list of things we need to know when you request a PC build. If you don't answer these questions, we will ask them or simply refer you to this post.

What is your budget and currency? (Pound sign does not work normally, use GBP abbreviation)
Do you need a monitor?
Do you need a keyboard?
Do you need a mouse?
Do you need an operating system?
What will you use the PC for?


We need this, or you won't get any decent suggestions!

That is a solid card for the budget, a 7870 will run a lot of games, while only being 150$ for the Ghz Ed.

You are going to want to upgrade that before you buy the 7870.

It requires a good 550 watt PSu, or a VERY good 500!

And since I have never heard of Prudent Way, DON'T UPGRADE TO THE 7870 (until you have upgraded your Power Supply).
