Simple question, what's the best sub $200 video card out now ?
I'm building a new system for the first time in a long while. I'm looking for something to go with an i5-2500k.
I'm inclined to go with Nvidia since I haven't bought one of their cards since NV25. But ultimately I just want the most bang for the buck. Whatever has the best benchmarks and overclocks in that price range. I don't care about power draw, heat, or noise.
I could spend a little higher if it makes a big difference, but I'm trying not to go crazy on the video card because I believe this is a somewhat non ideal time to buy. I guess the new generation gpus will be announced soon. But probably not before December right ?
But I'm ready to buy now so I can be playing Rage, Skyrim, and Battlefield 3.
I was looking at GTX-560s. Are the titaniums editions worth it ? Does AMD offer something better ?
