Post: Need a graphics card... help anyone?
08-28-2011, 11:45 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My birthdays tomorrow, so i'm picking out a graphics card today for my "budget" gaming pc. I was hoping to get an ATI Radeon, because I'm getting an AMD processor. Pretty much the ONLY games I will be playing are Minecraft, New Vegas, and Garrys Mod. I play everything else on ps3. I was hoping not to spend over $80, but If I must.... its ok. I would REALLY like to max out these games with this card. Also, please make sure it fits this mobo.

For instance, i play Bad company 2 on the highest settings with 4xAA and 4xAF, and i never get below 30 fps(it is mainly in the 40's and 50's).
I also played The Battlefield 3 alpha, and it was almost always above 30 fps on the highest settings.

I know you may not be playing the most graphically intensive games now, but spending an extra $40 now and having the option later might be worth it in the long run.
