Need help choosing a new card

CINTAM · 06 Mar 2011

I'm having major issues with my PC.

See my issue here: https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...ml#post1277075

Now, looking on Amazon I quickly became confused about which card to get on a budget.

My current Video Card is an Nvidia GeForce 8500 GT

These are a few of the ones I was looking at:

1. Sapphire HD5450 1GB DDR3 £39.26
2. Sapphire HD5570 1GB DDR3 £57.47
3. Gigabyte GV-R4640C-1GI Radeon HD 4650 (1GB, ATX, DVI-1) £47.16
4. ASUS 1GB -HD- 4350 Silent -PCI-E 2.0 (x16) - 800MHz GDDR2 -GPU 600MHz -80 Cores - D-Sub/DVI-I/HDMI £40.40
5. Palit nVidia gEfORCE 9500 GT 1GB PCI-Express £43.49
6. Zotac GT 240 1GB DDR3 PCI Express £54.08

Which one would you recommend?

Cintam, I would suggest filling out your system specs, we need to know the PSU make, model and power capacity. Also what kind of space do you have in your case....that rhymed.
If it was me I would strongly consider the Sapphire HD5570. What do you do with your computer and what is your price limit?

Either the HD 5570 or GT 240 should be fine with most modern power supplies and give you better performance than the 8500 you have.
