|
 |
My video card kind of died on me ( before schedule, as i've wanted to upgrade this year ). So i need to chose one of those rather cheap cards for now. Open to suggestions, as i'm not sure what to chose. 7850 seems like a winner, but ATI/AMD used to be not so great on the drivers side.
Any help it's appreciated.

Do yourself a favor and check the "nVidia can write drivers" thread.
Always the same shit, even after all these years FFS...

200 euro top, as a budget, hence my limited choices. The LE is in my country with at least 20 euro over the budget and right now i'm tight with money as i'm preparing to move again.

Get the XT, its awesome card for the price. Its cut down version of 7950, easily reaches to its speed when overclocked.

Ah, and almost forgot: any particular developer? Asus, Sapphire and so on... |
I'll take Bioshock Infinite, since I already have Tomb Raider

However! If you're going for a 78xx, I'd strongly recommend stretching to a 7870XT. It's the Tahiti LE and pretty much sits between 7870 and 7950 in terms of performance -- whilst retaining an excellent price. What's your budget?
Well, that's a shame but don't worry, the 7850 is still the better choice instead of a 650ti.
