/g/ I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP

I'm fairly positive my GPU has died see pic related

When I startup, I get those blue bars and when I'm supposed to be at my desktop I get a black screen with "falling snowflakes"

Is my video card finally kill?

I have a powercooler hd Radeon 8670 in

Please let me know is this is the problem! I'd like to buy another one if that's the case this weekend!!!

I live in NYC so I was thinking of going to B&H and picking one up

I don't know much about video cards (if this is indeed tha case)

Are those that I listed good?

I do very light gaming but the one game I play is rather intense (I think)

I have two 120hz monitors and would like (if possible) a GPU that would be compatible with both monitors

I would like to keep it under $200 if possible!
>>
>>51946271
OP your GPU's memory is kill

>750
>750ti
>950
You'd get better performance with your current GPU, in it's current state.

Those cards are the definition of memes

>>51946314
Also I have windows 7 64bit ultimate
i5 2500k
Corsair cx600 psu
1tb hdd
500gb ssd
Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 mobo (will nvidia cards even fit into here???)
>>
>>51946315
>>51946336

So my GPU need to be replaced?
Can you please help with a recommendation under $200 if possible?

Would love to pick one up tomorrow in NYC (I guess B&H is the best place for this?)

Sorry on mobile so slower responses

Thanks guys

Thank you
Is that better than any nvidias in the same price range?

I've had better luck with nvidias than amds from my experience and would like to make the switch back

but I'm not sure because I'm very out of the look especially with GPU hardware developments
>>
bump might go to best buy today!
>>
>>51946384
Get a R9 380
Pretty cheap and amazing
>>
>>51946428
>>51946685
Yep best card for the price. It's a pretty capable card, especially if OP is gonna be light gaymen
>>
>>51946685
>>51946749
Thanks fellas

Is the XFX better or worse than the msi?
>>
>>51946358
why not amd?
>>
>>51947246
Buying the r9 380
>>
>>51947221
The warranty length should be your primary concern. And to stay away from Asus AMD cards, in general.
>>
>>51947434
How are gigabyte amd cards?
>>
>>51947460
Many of the OC records have gone to MSI cards is about all I know. Xfx is a good brand tho, nothing to be worried about.
