[gpu]gtx 650ti or 750ti or 660
August 7th, 2016
here are the prices
Galaxy 750ti 2GB OC at ~10k
650ti: 9k INR for 1GB, 11k for 2GB
the cheapest 660 (zotac) at about 12k INR
my specs: i5 4570 (non-k), 8gigs of ram 1300mhz, 450W corsair PSU, msi h87 mobo
required for: fifa 15 (hopefully next 2 installments aswell) and some other casual gaming like AC3/4. No coding/photoshop/any graphic or software related work.
Max reslolution : 1920×1080.
The resolution is the main issue why i’m even considering the other two except the 660, as I won’t be plugging in to my 42inch bravia anytime soon.
The 750ti is better and less money than the 650ti 2GB and is a lot easier on your PSU than the 650ti or the 660. The Corsair 450W should easily take care of the 750ti.
the difference between 750ti and 660 is hardly 2000INR, but i saw some benchmarks and 660 had better performance. Can’t understand this as 7 series came out later
The order would be 650ti<750ti<660<760. The 660 and 760 are about the same price and the 760 performs a little better but uses less power. A Zotac 760 is 11700 INR using a currency converter from US dollars.

Break the numbers down and you’ll understand:
6-60
7-50
Generation – level in that generation
So a 660 is one generation behind a 750 BUT is higher spec in it’s own generation.
It’s generally held that a tiny “level” change is equal to one generation change.
So a 660 would be ROUGHLY the same as a 750. (the 660 will be a bit better – but enough to justfy and price increase? Who knows?)
But a 650 would be worse than a 750 (the generation change make it better even thought the “level” is the same).
A common idea is that you have to jump TWO numbers – generations or levels – to actually SEE a gain in performance (“see” as opposed to benchmarks).
So – go from a 570 to a 770, go from a 520 to a 570, go from a 640 to a 770 (the generation AND level change = more than 2).
*****
Out of all of those, I’d probably go for the “Galaxy 750ti 2GB OC”.
Make SURE you power supply is up to it – it’s only 450W, if it’s a cheap no-name brand then it’s really about 300W.
If you can save up for a 970 you’ll pay the difference in electricity eventually.
