Looking for a new graphics card

[EndlessWaves]

At this point I'm getting pretty impatient, waited since the 480's release after hearing about the power problems for custom cards

They were fixed within a week. If you're happy with the volume then I'd go for a reference card.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapph...gx-37g-sp.html That should do you nicely for remastered Skyrim, GTA5 and Ark (if you use the -d3d10 -sm4 command line switches; they make a huge difference). Any of the higher priced 470s are getting into 480 territory.

The 470 handles Fallout4 ok (http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphi...oc-4gb/?page=9). That's an overclocked card but there won't more than a couple of FPS difference.

There's a £183 reference 480 4gb on ebuyer, but for your requirements I'd go with the cheaper card.

Also worth noting that the Sapphire Bagnaj linked has a decent memory overclock which should make up some of the difference (the reviewed ASUS leaves the memory at the stock 6.6Gbps)

I'd agree with looking into a used card. I've bought 2/3 for myself and others and if you look a bit into it, and ask the right questions from the buyer, you can get a great deal that will last you a long time.
