HIS 6870 IceQ X vs ASUS HD 6870

[singh_dd93]

I had ordered HIS IceQ X 6870 to a retailer but he is now telling me to buy ASUS HD 6870 and insists that this is better.
Plz guide mw which is better and which one to buy.
I can get my money back and order online as well.

Or you can suggest me any 6870 GPU which performs better

What price are you getting both for ?
What are your specs ?
If the retailer hasnt yet ordered the card, will he allow you to get a different gpu all together ?
What is your budget ?

Things I have recieved:
AMD FX 8120 for 9.5k
GA970A-DS3 for 5.2k

Things I am yet to recieve:
G Skill 1 x 8GB 1600MHz Ripjaws getting for 3k
the GPU

My total budget for these 4 things was min 30k and max 32k.
So the budget for GPU is 12k to 14k

He is giving me HIS one for 12500 and Asus one for 12000
And Ya i can make him change to any card

Get a 7850 @ 14k - best in that range .... which psu will u be using ?

Get this card MSI AMD R7850 Power Edition 2GD5/OC 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card | Graphics Card | Flipkart.com @15k from flipkart you might find it cheaper in local shops.
And what is ur PSU?

Power Supply
Corsair CX500V2

Get any of the following:

1. GIGABYTE GRAPHIC CARD RADEON HD 7850 2GB DDR5 OC

2.GIGABYTE GRAPHIC CARD GTX 660 2GB DDR5 OC

Both are very good but i would suggest the second one. It offers superior performance than a 7850 even after 12.11 driver updates.

Check the following:

Buddy, HD 7850 is a very powerful card and your PSU is very capable of running the setup. Due to lower fabrication process, 7850 actually consumes lessser power than HD 6850 and offers performance like GTX 570 or HD 6970.

Md computer is probably offering lowest price for HD 7850. Grab that without single thought.
