Hello
I am looking to replace my obsolete GTS 450 DDR3 with something with a little more oomph. I would like something that lasts (as in something that will still work 3 years down the line), has good bang for buck and good on the power draw too.
I have found a Radeon R9 270 by Powercolor off of ebuyer for around £130. (As I am new to these forums I cannot post the url)
My budget is no higher than that, I could stretch to £140 if it is really really good. If there is something for less money that is nearly as good as an R9 270 (and the gap can be narrowed through overclocking) then I'll plump for that. I have no brand preferences, I just want something that is fast and works. I am running a 22 inch 1080p telly (yes my GTS 450 does chug along sometimes) and my power supply limits me to a card that has one PCI-E 6/8pin (its an OCZ Stealth X Stream 500watt).
The games I play are the source engine games like TF2 and Garry's Mod, Empire and Rome ii Total War, War Thunder, Skyrim and occasionally BF3.
Thanks for any help![]()
