What's the best GPU for around $200 at the moment?

I currently have a 7850 2GB.

4850x2 1GB

>>51848639
I was hoping for just a single GPU, don't want to SLI/CrossFire.
>>
8800 GT

Handles Crysis like a champ.

4670 tbqh senpai

200 is a balance bracket, this is the gpu you want.

960 or 380?

Is there a real, like actual unbiased comparison?
>>
>>51848979
You really just need to find comparisons with the games you play. FPS and whatnot.
One card will be better at some things, the other at other things.
>>
Follatelas a todas.
>>
>>51848979
Not that much. Just choose which company you like more
>>
>>51849120
Does AMD still have that weird latency shit?

I have an 8320 CPU right now, would that cause a bottleneck for either of these cards?

Is this a good deal, or is 2GB just not worth it, even at 1080p?
>>
>>51849971
2GB is dead sempai

3GB or 4GB is standard now.
>>
960 and 380 sucks. Get a used 290.
>>
>>51848639
What idiot honestly reccomends 4 year old GPU's in crossfire? End your life faggot.
>>
So I found this: http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-DL-DVI-I-DL-DVI-D-Graphics-11242-13-20G/dp/B016LE95TK

What the fuck is Nitro?
>>
>>51850168
A name they came up with for that particular cooler config.
>>
>>51850074
This buy some kind of used gpu OP - some people don't know what there shit is worth
>>
>>51848839
seconded
make sure to get the 4GB or else you're fucked
>>
>>51849398
I have a 960 and fx 8320, oc to 4.0ghz and you are golden.
>>
>>51848635
send $90 get a R9 390 and be good for 5 years
>>
>>51850276
Isn't the r9 390 supposed to be loud and run hot?
>>
So I'm leaning towards the 960, but I have a question.

I've got a $50 Amex business gift card from work that I wanna use (hey it's a free $50 off) to buy this thing. How the fuck can I use it as basically a "-$50 coupon"
>>
>>51850292
No?

My sapphire r9 390 barely makes any noise and runs fine under load. My CPU stock cooler on the other hand...
>>
>>51850292
gpus get loud when the fans run over 50% which doesn't happen anymore outside of overclocks that hit near max stability limits.
>>
>>51849990
>buyer-remorserers actually believe this

>>51850253

asus gtx 960 strix 4gb when you can find it on sale you can get it under 200$ other wise its at about 217 where i live but i got a gtx 960 strix with an i5 4590 and itll pull 57 fps average on fallout 4 max graphics. better with ark survival evolved somewhere around 65. killing floor at about 60. crysis at about 39 to 45 for the average but slower times will reach 50+ but crysis is just a hard one for the budget cards.
honestly its awesome for open world games like witcher ark and fall out. i havent really tried any fast pace games like CoD but id assume its just the same. in my opinion its the perfect budget card. its silent pulls awesome fps, as well as lookin awesome and i got mine for about 180 and a free game so it can deffinitly be had for less. buddy has a 380 and the same cpu and he pulls simaler results but hes currently having driver issues. i wouldnt bash either one but ill vouch for the gtx 960 4gb. hope this helps bud.

>>51850576
>muh 960
enjoy your 128 bit bus fag
r9 380x is better in every way.
>>
>>51850876
i think both have there perks my drivers are also not fucked up and im still playin while my friend isnt but when he was i saw no gains from one to the next so for the time being im content
>>
Alright, just bought a 960 because fuck it.

Thanks guys.

>>51850972

>This is now a buyer's remorse thread
>>
>>51851034
