    Help me find a new GFX card.

    With all these new awesome games coming out soon, I badly need a new gfx card. Currently I'm using a 3yo GTS 250.
    I've looked at this card GIGABYTE GEFORCE GTX 560 TI OC 1GB PCI-E DVI/HDMI +BATMAN GAME - Gigabyte fortsætter sin succes med fabriks-overclockede modeller, but I'm not sure if there are better cards I can get for the same price. My budget is 1750 DKK, which is about $300.

    To check danish prices, you can use the site EDBpriser - find og sammenlign de bedste priser og tilbud på danmarks bedste prisguide, pricerunner.dk or kelkoo.dk.

    Submissions/suggestions might be repped.

    That chart might help with the decision making.

    I'm not going to buy anything overseas, besides, GTX 560 Ti seems to be better.
    I've also heard that ATI cards are good, but the drivers horrible.

    My ATI card's have done me great even with high level 3D rendering. Their cheap and the XXX editions are amazing. You can get profiles for specific games e.g. BF3 which makes a hell of a lot of difference you can OC alot of them pretty well.

    Note It's the 550Ti thats shit sorry not the 560
    If you need me you have my skype, if you don't have my skype then you don't need me.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but it seems like the Gigabyte GTX 560Ti OC Windflow is better than the ATI card you linked

    If you're able to add 19.99$ I will suggest this card. Newegg.com - EVGA 012-P3-1571-KR GeForce GTX 570 HD w/Display-Port (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

    It's faster than the 560ti and it runs cool and silent.

    EDIT: I'm sorry I couldn't find any good reviews. But all the performance tests they make are so inaccurate. But on resulutions of 1900x1080 and lower the gtx 570 performs almost as good as the radeon hd 6970.

    Adding $20? No problem, but that card costs $100 more than the GTX 560Ti, and it's $100 more than I'm willing to give.

    Hehe I ment on your budget of 300$ of course. The GTX 560ti is worth every penny though.
