[EvilJoker]

Witch one should i go for?? Both around same price.. But i dont know witch has better price/proformace ratio.... I cant find a good compare between the two

Any advice on this would be great!

THanks to all that helps!

Looks like the 5830 is stronger?? (Strean Processors)

[EvilJoker]

Yea.. i looked on there to.. Its kinda hard to find any that compare the 2

I think the 5830 would be a similar card in performance terms. the 5830 is one up from my old 5770 and i worked out a 7770 was about 10 - 15% faster and moaned about how static cards have been performance wise over the past few years.

If it was me i would go for the 7770, much newer tech....

 

[Knufire]

Maybe a used GTX460 at that range? Also similar performance, maybe a but cheaper but is killer in SLI (GTX580 like performance).

yeah, or any used GPU if you don't mind getting second hand? you could probably get a GTX 560ti or 6950 for that money.

 

[Knufire]

7770 only like $130. You're not going to get either of those cards used at that price. Maybe a used 6870.

 

[EvilJoker]

I can get a 5830 or 7770 for around that price.. I like Nvidia better than ATI. But i cant find a gtx 460 for that price range...

 

[Knufire]

Keyword used. I wouldn't pay more than $110-120 for a GTX460. I'd imagine them to be going around $100.

 

[EvilJoker]

Yea.. $100 is to rich for my blood.. Ive spent enough of PC parts.. SO im tring to find a GOOD USED GPU So.. its still the question, 5830 or 7770?

 

[Knufire]

Wait, how much are you trying to spend? A 7770 is more than $100...

 

[EvilJoker]

No i can get one for around 70-85$ used

 

[Knufire]

I've seen $85 for a 460 on Ebay.

 

[EvilJoker]

Thats not includin shipping.

 

[EvilJoker]

Currently my choices is between 5830 vs 7770

 

[Knufire]

7770 then.

 

[Frakk]

7770 then.

+1
