Getting a new GPU!

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

Getting a new GPU!

Post by oscarson4 »

Im getting a new GPU. And I dont know what i need to run it in max settings without buying a "overkill" card.
Do I want much memory? Or is it enough with 1GB?

How's this? Or do I want that one with 2GB? http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=4359#ov

:D

Depends on the resolution you plan on running the games at. The higher the resolution the more video memory you will need. If you want max settings you may want to invest in something like a GTX680 or one of AMD's high end cards. If you just want it to look good with high settings plan on spending about $200 give or take. You would probably get away with something like a 660TI or a Radeon 7870.

Man some of you have high standards. I do fine fps wise with a 1gb 560. I know several people with 460s that run mxs fine.

Well he didn't ask what would run the game stable. He said, "max settings".

I'll help you narrow your search. Get something with at least 2GB, you'll thank me later.
