Rofltroll Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Andres here's the thing with video cards; they can have more than one manufacturer. For example an MSI Twin Frozr II 560 Ti will be more expensive than an Inno3D card even though they are the same exact card but with different cooling fans on them and some minor other modifications. The reason why I asked you to link the store from which you are buying is so that we can get you the best possible deal. I agree that you should get the 560 Ti card ... that has amazing performance but now we need to figure out what manufacturer you should pick. You said your parents are traveling? does that mean that they are going to the US and are going to buy you the card or ... I didn't quite get that part. If they are indeed going to USA then you should be able to get a great card for 200 bucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rofltroll Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 Tell your dad to go to a computer store and get the cheapest 560 Ti but specifically tell your father : 560 TI - you don't want him to get you a simple 560 and tell you he found a bargain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickk47 Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 Between XFX, HIS and Gigabyte, in my experience, XFX is great. They have lifetime warranty and customer service is great. Gigabyte is also trustworthy. Barely any difference between those manufacturers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 for example wich manufacturer is better http://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.phtml?N=4294966937+4294946165+4294924665+4294924663 I'd get the gigabyte with that beastly looking cooler on it!! $5 well spent!

vandreadstriker Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 I'd get the gigabyte with that beastly looking cooler on it!! $5 well spent! But Gigabyte cards are usually a lottery.. At least in my country.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 But Gigabyte cards are usually a lottery.. At least in my country.. Really?? my friend's gigabyte 460 (with a VERY similar cooler) has cooled better than any 460 I've personally used so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not particularly talking about the cooler, but the card as a whole since I've seen lots of DOA (again, at least in my country) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rofltroll Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 I'd choose HIS IceQ; here's a review of that card: http://www.guru3d.com/article/his-radeon-6850-iceq-x-turbo-review/14 If you want the 560 Ti then the cheapest one i saw was 220 dollars. http://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.phtml?N=4294966937+40+4294927851&Ns=P_RetailPrice&Nso=Ascending The price difference is large between the 6850 and the 560 Ti so I suggest you go with the 6850 even if it is a slightly slower card.
