I have had a Saphire Radeon HD 6770 for for about 9 years? I believe it has 4gb (I run DXdiag and the display says there is 4095mb) although I distinctly remember buying it as a 1gb.
It seems to be doing okay running most games but my computer gets SUPER loud when running something like Bioshock Infinite. I assume that means I need a video card that isn't ancient.
So:
1) Is the video card a good upgrade to make given my current rig?
2) What video card that is compatible with my mobo is going to get me the most bang for my buck? Looking around the 150 range. I assume there is a significant upgrade in that range because I spent about 120 on this card 8-9 years ago.
