Suggest a graphics card for full HD gaming

[Kabaal]

Unless you don't mind slide shows you're not going to be doing much gaming with that R7 240, games you mentioned like Thief will bring it to it's knees. It's a home theater PC card not a gaming card.

One of two things needs to happen, either you need to bite the bullet and spend more than tuppence or adjust your expectations of what games you are going to play on it. Quite simply it will not cope with the likes of Far Cry 3 and Thief that you want to use it for.

AMD Radeon R7 240, It comes armed with enough graphics processing horsepower to drive a majority of modern games at 720p (and even 1080p in some titles). This should be the starting point for gamers on a tight budget.

From toms hardware review web site.

on low settings maybe if you are happy with that then take the risk

720p is not full HD

might aswell wait for few years so the price falls down for radeon r9 295x2 then get it from Ebay.

do you think Intel Quad Core 2 Q6600 2.4GHz can handle the card?
with 4Gb DDR3 RAM 1066
and a cheap 600Watt power supply. i don't no how many amp's its got.

No budget card will play Far Cry 3 at full settings, full HD, 60fps. The other games you could maybe get by with a midrange card (£150-250 or so).

Plus what makes you think by the time the R9 295x2 falls to a "budget" price it'll play games any better than a similarly priced card today?

Pretty sure he's just trolling us now.

Why don't you just say get a new computer with a good graphic card. From ChillBlast

you could just raise your budget to a realistic level or compromise on what you want

You keep saying get a mid range graphic card but you not answering my question will it work on my PC without blowing up my PSU? Is 4GB RAM of memory enough? Is intel quad core2 2.4GHz enough to run a mid range graphic card? Answer this first.
If the answer is NO it won't work in my PC then
Its no point getting a mid range if its not going to work in my PC.

I ain't seen you ask that question till just. Honestly I do not care do what you want

Any card you can afford will work fine in your PC.

You would have to spend over £800 to get a card that had the potential to "blow up" your PSU

[truthspeaker]

@tizmeinnit you didn't need to reply if you didn't care.
Thanks qasdfsaq. I see how much I can save to buy I good one.

[truthspeaker]

Just google that direct X 12 graphic card is coming out so need to wait.

u would be surprised how power some of the new cards use.

I have a sapphire R7 260x (oc) and it needs 75watt of power.

There are still shops selling pcs with quad core processors using 400watt PSUs.

When u take into account the CPU, Hard Drives, USB and so on and so on it doesnt leave much room for expansion.
