GPU upgrade from HD 6770

[Allanlee82]

Hi,

Currently I'm using the HD 6770.
Looking for an upgrade.
No need for too highend, only using it to play dota 2 only.
Budget less than $150,2nd hand ones would be OK too.
Any recommendations?

Seems like dieing soon, the whole PC would hang once in a while when playing.
Sometimes the HDMI also cannot detect but still can heard the fan spining. Need to ctrl+alt+del a few times before the monitor start showing.

check the heatsink fan still spinning or not. my sapphire 6770 heatsink was hot until separated due to fan jammed and I wasn't aware of it.

I put the heatsink and re-melt the solder together but too sad the heat pipe already leaky....

i sold away my 7850 for $120. U can try looking around for that card at that price. 7850 is very easy to overclock too.

GTX 750 1GB?

Similar performance but no need extra power connector...

look at 2nd hand 7870... is about $150.
If you can save up, i got a used 7950 for $200 with 18mths warranty

The heatsink still spinning, actually when i switch to DVI, it can work, so mostly is the HDMI port siao siao already.

Noted, thanks. Im keeping the budget at $150, cause i think GPU priced above that are overkill for me.
