TOP BEST BUDGET GRAPHIC CARD

Hi guys today i will show you the best budget GPU to play  your game at 1080p or at least at 720p with medium to high settings. If you have a budget of RS 8000($70) to Rs 15,000 ($150), then you can have decent gaming experience at a tight budget. As newer graphics cards are being released from both Nvidia and AMD, they support the latest directX 12 and have good compatibilities with the latest skylake processors and windows 10 which makes them a good choice for newest titles.

I have listed down the best budget entry level graphics card which are meant for gaming at 1080p with a little bit of compromise. These graphics cards are best for a budget builds and will provide you at least 30+fps without breaking your bank. I have used every listed graphics card in one build or another. So must check out them.

NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 2 GB DDR5 Graphics Card

PRICE=Rs 8K ($99)

 

This is the cheapest graphics card that can play your games at 720p or higher on medium settings. It has 2gb of gddr5 memory which is enough for 720p and higher resolutions. You will be able to bump up the settings a little bit higher like shadows, anti-aliasing and textures which require more memory.

There are also 2gb and 4gb versions which cost the same or even higher but they have slower ddr3 memory, so it’s better to stick with gddr5 as it outperforms the ddr3 Vram. You can expect 30+fps in most of the games on medium settings or if you want to play at 1080p, you have to tweak the settings a little bit to make your games run smooth. But still this is the cheapest I can recommend.

Nvidia Gtx 750 ti 2gb gddr5

PRICE= Rs 9,99($99)

Gtx 750 ti is still one of the best graphics cards of all time when it comes to gaming on a budget. It can play all the latest games on high settings at 1080p easily and can play games like battlefield 4 on ultra. Moving from gtx 600 series, this graphics card uses the Maxwell architecture which is helpful in reducing the power consumption and increases performance per cuda core.

When the power consumption of this graphics card is compared to that of it’s rival R7 260x, we find that it consumes almost half the power as consumed by R7 260x which is also a factor deciding this gpu as a good choice. It’s price has gone down very much and you can grab it before the price goes up again.

AMD NITRO R7 370 4gb gddr5

PRICE=RS 14,900 ($134)

Games like Middle Earth: shadow of Mordor and Gta V depend more on memory. The more Vram is present the more you can bump the settings. Shadow of Mordor requires more than 4gb for textures and similarly Gta V. This R7 370 is the 4gb version which has a benefit over the 2gb version as it can give you a boost in performance at higher resolutions and at higher settings.

Dynamic shadows and anti-aliasing can be bumped up to high still giving you smooth performance. This one is from Sapphire and too has a good heatsink for better overclocking. The prices are almost same right now, so better get it.

GeForce GTX 950 OC 2gb gddr5

PRICE=RS 15,000($154)

The fastest graphics card that you can buy for $150 is the Gtx 950 which is newest release from Nvidia. This graphics card is small brother of gtx 960 and can pretty well play any game at 1080p high to ultra settings with more than 50+ fps on an average.

This graphics card is best suited for a $500 gaming pc with a decent processor like Fx 6300. With 2gb of gddr5 memory and a memory clock of 6610Mhz this graphics card gives better performance than the R7 370. The only disadvantage of this card is that it’s memory interface is 128-bit which is half compared to R7 370 but rather going tough on specs we should focus on the practical performance which is faster.

The core clock is much higher than the R7 370 and can be bumped upto 1.3Ghz which can unlock insane performance.
