Oh kay, got it. Sapphire then.

Um any specific reason?

Okay which one of these two would be a better choice? SAPPHIRE HD 7790 2GB GDDR5 OC MSI Global ? Graphics Card - R7790-2GD5/OC

Yeah I think It'd be wise to get a 2gb version coz I'm probably not gonna upgrade for atleast another 3 yrs.

Well I'll check out the prices at the local dealers and if my budget permits I'll probably go for a 7790 2gb as the gtx650ti boost probably won't fit my pockets. Else I'll have to be satisfied with a 7790 1gb I think.

Can someone tell me what exactly happens when the gpu runs out of vram? As far as playing games at ultra settings is concerned, my gts 450 1gb was able to run bf3 at ultra with ~30 fps, though I don't know how much vram it used as I never bothered to check.

I usually aim for atleast 30+ fps while gaming. If that can be achieved at ultra settings in any particular game then I'd want to crank the settings all the way up, and if 1gb vram restricts me from doing so, then I'd rather go for 2gb. But for that I may have to increase my budget by ~2k which...

Ok, let's forget about mantle for now but won't the 1gb vram on the 7790 fall short in future games? How much extra would a 2gb version cost me?

I agree, but won't the mantle api come into play in future games? How so?

Hm, I was thinking the R7 260X.

1. Which Power Supply do you have? (Be EXACT while naming the company and model) Ans: Corsair CX400W. 2. What is your budget? Ans: ~10k. 3. Which resolution will you game at? Ans: 1600*900 4. What are your current computer specifications? Ans: Please see my sig below. My ZOTAC GTS 450 1GB...

Sure it is, but it's nvidia again, you know. So this time I'd like to go with the red team.

Since everyone is obsessing over the heavyweights (r9 series) here, it feels kinda embarrassing to ask this question but I'll ask anyway. Is the r7 260x worth an upgrade from my gts 450 which unfortunately gave up on me a couple of months ago (thanks to nvidia's so called whql certified drivers)?

Okay, since yesterday evening I've been running on integrated graphics after removing the discrete graphics card and I'm yet to encounter the display problem. Is there any way to tell if this indicates a fault in my GPU or my PSU's incapability to handle the GPU's load combined with the other...

Oh k. I got it now. I'm such a dumbo LOL. I should have known that. Well, actually I'm not that dumb but when something happens to my PC my brain stops functioning. So I'll make a video using my phone the next time the problem occurs and post it here.

All games run fine but the grain/horizontal lines/artifacts are always there regardless of what I am doing on my PC. I will check for any fault in the PSU the way you suggested and report back ASAP. Regarding the screenshot/video thing, what I actually meant was that I can take/make...

Well, right now my cabinet is all opened up & it's a kind of a mess here. So, I am just using my monitor's inbuilt speakers & the external speakers are disconnected. I did a high level format of my HDD approx a month ago & since then I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials which is always...

Ran ubuntu. Display problem is still there. Tried running OS with onboard graphics. Doesn't display nothing at all. Weird. Cleaned the Graphics card slot and reinserted the card. Problem still there. The first time the display went dim was when I had a stable running system. First it went dim...

@patkim Okay, I'll do as you suggested when I find time & report back ASAP. Although I don't think it's related to the OS as it's present during the booting also, in the BIOS even. The problem is not permanent though, as it comes and goes. @gollum All right. Posted below are the video & the...
