Define 'any stuffs:- MEANING any games at full HD.

can Radeon R7 240 OR GeForce GT 730 play latest games at FULL HD?

Different games place different demands on your hardware. Some games might easily run with a gopod frame rate on relatively low powered cards. Other games will stutter along. It can also depend on the detail settings you choose in game. For example you can have full 1080p HD resolution and simply then customise the detail from ultra down to basic.

Choose your preferred game and your preferred graphics settings. Anything with frame rate above 60fps will be OK. You might be happy with less, but lower rates will at times approach juddery, and anything under 40fps is no good at all.

Absolutely this. There is no graphics card in the world that can play every game in existence at full speed at full settings at full HD. The OP needs to be more specific.

I would say 60fps and above is only necessary for fast past games, e.g. first-person twitch shooters. 30-60fps is fine for slower FPSes and RTS and even 10-20fps is acceptable for some few games. I recently played through Far Cry 3 single player at an average framerate of 38fps and it was perfectly fine and not juddery at all. Indeed, some people can't tell the difference between 40 and 60fps, and lots of people cant tell the difference between 60 and 120fps.

Hell most of the KSP community is used to running at less than 10 frames per second when trying to build complicated ships.

i reciently bought this card as my old radion 6670 the dvi port packed up

The OC at the end means its the overclock version and comes with software to control overclocking even to a point of increasing fan speeds manually.

the overdrive feature is available in most if not all AMD desktop cards

True but the overdrive feature is limited and does not some basic features fundamental to overclocking such as voltage control, which manufacturer utilities do.

You still haven't said WHAT GAMES.

If you want to play Angry Birds at FULL HD 1080p then even the graphics card in my phone can manage that.

Far Cry 3, Mortal Kombat komplete edition, thief, Need for Speed Rivals, Resident Evil 4 HD edition.

Topic in question. All if not most at a good framrate and res a good card would be a 4GB 770.

Budget? The 2gb version.

Re: Suggest a graphics card for full HD gaming
 
You can spend as much money as you want, there's still no card that can play every game at full HD at max framerate and max settings.

£2200 might get you close, but no closer than a £1000 card.

And yet again, the equivalent AMD will give you comparable performance while running cooler, quieter, and at less than half the price, save you over £1000.

Re: Suggest a graphics card for full HD gaming
 
@adzii_nufc its to much. my CPU processor maybe can't handle the graphic card which you said and then i need a new Power Supply
LOOOOOOL @qasdfdsaq
@qasdfdsaq even i know £2200 12GB Geforce GTX TITAN Z and £1000 8GB AMD Radeon R9 295 X2 can play Full HD.
GTX TITAN Z and Radeon R9 295 X2 its made for Ultra HD and 4K. > you can play games at Ultra HD and 4K.
i said budget graphic card.
if not any game then at least most games.

i think Radeon R7 240. is good price for £40..and is good for my CPU, RAM and PSU.
or GeForce GT 640 seems ok for budget.

Thank you alanbjames and Rob and co
