At the moment i’m quite busy with assembling a new computer for myself. So far it's going pretty well. but i have trouble with searching for the right graphic card. I’m pretty mutch a newbie at assembling computters but I havnt got enough knowledge to find a strong graphic card for a price that doesn’t pass the €100. At the moment I’m looking at these graphic cards:

(In the top right corner is a button that changes the language. The webpage is Dutch sorry for that)

Can I get advice on the card I should buy?. And if there are suggestions for other cards you can always give them :D.

Incase there is need for the specs ill give the components for so far I assembled it. (You can leave suggestions here to :P)

Sharkoon Vaya
LG GH24NS70
OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W
G.Skill 16 GB DDR3-1600 Kit
Seagate ST1000DM003
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0
AMD FX-6100

Together €450 so far. My budget is €550
 
You won't find much under euro, what kind of games do you play? And on what resolution?
I got my hd6870 for sale, that would be 150-160 new. I sell it for 80+shipping cost.

The hd6870 will do most games at high settings (some ultra with all setting maxxed) at 1080p.

EDIT: did you already buy the other components? I recommend you to go for a vishera (FX6300) over that one, or a cheap i5 or even an i3 is pretty good for gaming...

Usualy i'm playing the a bit older games, like fallout new vegas and. SOmetimes i'm playing newer games like battlefield 3 to. i have a PS3 for that but it the thing with a ps3 that bothers me is that the hardware is over 6 years old now. I dont mind playing games on lower graphics as long as it looks abit smooth. But considering that i dont have the money to buy a strong graphic card it's going to look hard finding one.
 
oh and i didnt bought something yet indeed. it whoud be a shame to buy it without the abillity to make use of it
 
You're able to play battlefield 3 at high settings pretty well with an hd6870, but what's the resolution of your screen?
 
I'd at least go with an hd6850/hd7770 or gtx560/gtx550ti.
That'd be a little over your budget.
If you're interested in my hd6870, add me on skype (robas150).
You can find the info for the card by clicking the link I posted above.
I live in Belgium, so shipping is no problem.
Where are you getting your other stuff? I recommend alternate.nl.
 
i'm not intrested in buying used hardware. but what i cant see is that the hd6870 chip is less advanced than the 7750 chip. isnt the7750 stronger?. i did use the webpage of alternate tough. ther shop is at the cornor of my house xD.
 
Alternate is good. And no, a hd6870 is much stronger. The hd6850=hd7770<hd6870.
Anyway, my hd6870 is almost new, did only use it 2 weeks or something. (Used it in CF with another card but had microstutter). I tested it again and no issues...
I think you'd be better of with mine then that cheap hd7750. ;P
 
im building it myself. but for a idea i want to see how the expert creates one ;p

Hehe, picking parts isn't too difficult lol. But change that FX to an FX6300, that's would be the biggest mistake of that build lol.
But you mean building the components to a pc or picking ;P, there's a big difference.
 
i ment that you could pic them. I have been talking to another friend and he sugested to pick another mobo to. (en als je dit lezen kan is het dan niet beter dat we nederlands praten?:D)

If you can get a 7770 for around 100 Euros I'd probably recommend that. It's a decent card for gaming. Otherwise, the 7750 will be OK.

There's always the GeForce GTX 650 from NVIDIA too. Not sure how much that costs where you are.
 
Whel the plans did change abit. i've been assembling a new computer, and it should take abit longer till i can buy it. i think it will be around a 100 euro more i can spend at april. my new essambley is like this:

Sharkoon Vaya
LG GH24NS70
Sharkoon WPM600
G.Skill 16 GB DDR3-1600 Kit
Seagate ST1000DM003
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0
AMD FX-6300

all together it has a price of €470. I could save monney in a power supply and spent it to another CPU. becouse people assumed it wouldnt work that well for gaming. But i have 200 euros left now that i can spend in other components. And i still dont realy know what kind of video card i should get. Mabey some links would help me.

and the price of a GTX650 graphic card has the price around 100 and 150 euros.
