Pls recommend graphic card

[cslkelvin]

I just upgraded from win7 to win10 and dunno why it keep crashing. Format my hdd and install back win7 but then the crash/freeze still happen. Think is due to my graphic card spoilt as I got no problem when using my mobo onboard graphic.

Dunno what the current mid range cards as my last upgrade was ard 4yrs ago.
Pls recommend some bang for buck graphic cards. Mainly use to play games like COH2 and GW2. TIA.

budget 200-400?

whats ur graphic card anyway? and using which driver?

and i think maybe u can get either GTX 950/960 if u confirm not gonna fix.
as well as if ur psu is 500W i think both can work.

GTX950/960 is good for that price range

If can spend up to $400, might as well buy the Zotac 970 at $419 - http://www.lazada.sg/zotac-geforce-gtx-970-dual-fan-4gb-gddr5-126752.html

Just top up $19, get a free game which you can sell if you don't want.

MSI R7950 O.C 3GB GDDR5. I think using the latest amd driver from windows update.

You should say your CPU model. No point buying a good GPU that is going to be bottle-necked by your CPU.

But judging from your previous upgrade, I think a GTX970 is not useful because your CPU is going to limit the performance. Either upgrade both or go for GTX950 /GTX760
