Cyrius Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I prefer Nvidia cards myself, but that's just (mostly) unwarranted brand loyalty. SLI works real well (although some games have issues with multiple cards)Also, if you are playing games that use PhysX, many Nvidia cards will hardware support this and pull the processing away from your CPU.The newer Radeons are better if you want to have a single very powerful card though.Look for a card with faster memory, not necessarily more memory. Try to find a balance here. Clock speeds can be more important than the amount of memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John305 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Hi well you need to make sure you have room for a good card example a evga 560 sc is a nice card and would do you well price is around 220 $ and the 600 watt psu would run that as long as the psu has at least 24 amps on the 12 volt rail. These new gtx cards are dual slot cards meaning it would cover your pci slot just underneath the card. Also the cards are much bigger today that 560 is 4 inches in hight and 8.25 inches in length. So you first need to choose a card then before you buy make sure you have room to install it. Putting it in a small case with not very good cooling the card will run hot.
