i wouldn't try and push your lil guy too hard, lower end cards tend to have a lot less tolerance for power.

at that price you are better off saving a lil bit. it's right next to some really good cards. consider looking at the local used scene, try kijiji.

Looking to order a new video card tonight.

Im looking for Radeon 6770 for under $100.00

I actually missed out on this sale (http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?item_id=041310)

Anyways it seems like if i cant find the 6770 for under $100.00 ill have to go for 6750.

Any comparisons between the 2? the review seem to be very vague.

I play alot of games and want the best bang for my buck


If you play a lot of games then a 6770 is a horrible buy. Its really weak in benches all around.

You are better off going for a older generation card, some times you have to do some digging. I've seen a 460 for <100 before for example. 460 would be a beast compared to a 6770

ok took your advice, and got the powercolor one, heck 80 bucks after shipping and will be a good enough upgrade from 5450, and as long as it can play current games on medium setting and smooth and lasts me a year, its will be worth it.
