One of my computers has a old GeForce 8800 GTS and it finally died. Started showing all kinds of artifacts and crashing games. Now I am in need of a replacement card. Let me know if any of you have an extra video card that will play Team Fortress 2 and Left4Dead 2. I prefer a GeForce card, but right now I'll take anything I can get. This is a Windows box Thanks
Right now? $0 - $0 I don't really have anything to trade either. I have a few old Dell Laptops and an old small form factor media center PC. All Pentium 4 stuff. A friend is probably donate a GeForce 8800 and I just added two 120mm fans to that case, so it should stay pretty cool. I don't know if I burnt out that 8800 from heat or if it was faulty, but it was an old card and ran really well. It would get so hot that the top of my case was hot to touch. I'll probably put some new thermal paste on this one and see if it stays cool.
You can get an XFX R7 250X Core Edition right now from bestbuy for 70 bucks. 4K gaming, mantle, all of it is updated in that card.
I looked up a few cards on newegg.com and still want the 750 Ti There are a few that are about $100.00 I'll never regret spending a bit more on a video card Hence how my 8800's and 9800's are still cranking games.
However tomorrow GTX 950 is launched and in preliminary test seems good Stay very closer to GTX 760 performance with only 90w Here stay more information about this card (courtesy videocardz) This image have some values between various models
Hi techpowerup begins shows some benchmarks with GTX 950 However in bad news price stay high around 160us
Notice how the GeForce 750 Ti still performs nicely in those benchmarks? I can pick up one of those for $100 The 950 sounds GREAT, but in the long run I can't afford it. Ideally I want to replace all of my video cards which means purchasing 4 cards total.
Yeah GTX 750 is very good card and small form factor / performance / watt is excellent and now with lower price However if could stay in 100us will be ideal
I will probably wait until those 900's get a bit older I've always purchase 256-bit video cards, but right now they are closer to $200 US Way out of my budget. But if the 950's and 750 Ti's play most games, then those might be better in my situation. We aren't playing The Witcher 3 on HIGH, instead we play older titles like Unreal Tournament 3, Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, Borderlands 2, etc Those run great even on an 8800
This days 750Ti fall to 120us thanks appears 950 however end of year is coming and is possible appears more offers However if you have interested GTX750 non Ti stay as 109us + 3us for shipping and give you 30us in rebate card And consume only 55w
Radeon is not option for wine, many problems lower performance (gallium is different*), lower compatibility (native and wine based games), higher consume, not have good support** (native and wine based games) etc... *gallium is patched version without support and have many bugs (see gallium git for more information), unstable without forget other issues **wine dont have support because them dont approve double implementation
