1. Which Power Supply do you have? (Be EXACT while naming the company and model)
Ans: Corsair Cx430

2. What is your budget?
Ans: 10-12k

3. Which resolution will you game at?
Ans: 720p

4. What are your current computer specifications?
Ans: Amd 8320, Gigabyte 970A, Intel 120 GB SSD+ 500 GB WD blue, ATi 6770 radeon, Corsair cx430, Bitfenix alpha case.


The monitor i'm using is a basic dell 18.5 inch monitor. I do have a 42 inch sony Bravia and would love to game on it if possible. The games i'm looking to play is Arma 3, Bf4 and GTA 5 when it is released.

Can someone also please tell me how much resale value will a 2 and half year old 6770 sapphire card will fetch. There maybe a few months of warranty left.

I don't think 750 Ti would be able to play GTA 5 on the (Probably FHD) TV. Better to increase budget and get GTX 960.

Thanks guys for the suggestions. Gaming on Sony TV is not a priority and can't let it pass however i would definitely want to game on desktop at 720p above 60 fps. Although 750 Ti is within budget however online benchmarks does not seems to be very favorable. How will a saphhire R9 270x or 280 be ? R9 280 seems to be around 180$ in US . If its a good card , i can ask my friends to bring it from there.

I you can get an r9 280/x by all means get it, it will keep you gaming at high settings for a good time. Just make sure you are okay with not getting local warranty.

Yes gtx 750ti/R7 260x will play gta 5 fhd at mid settings. On other note guys pls recommend sapphire R7 260x as it's now priced 8700/- locally. Save some bucks.

You'll get no warranty and have problems with RMA. Basically, 180$ wasted.
