I found a different model of this acer and I was wondering, which graphics card is better the AMD Radeon HD8760 that this comes with or the GTX 760

I actually have a GTX 770 sitting right here.... I haven't installed it because my Radeon HD8760 has been rock solid. Honestly dont' think i will install the GTX unless something goes horribly wrong with the Radeon.

They are from two different companies. The GTX 760 is made by NVIDIA (NVIDIA GTX 760) and of course, the Radeon HD8760 is made by Radeon. They are both the latest technologies from competing companies in graphics cards. If you want the specific specifications for each vid card, you should access each company's websites for that data. I have been unable to find a side by side comparison of these two devices.

I haven't owned a 660, so I can't give an actual answer. That said, the 760 is just about as good as you can get in terms of bang for the buck, and it'll be enough to play almost anything you can throw at it at full resolution and maxed out settings. If you have any concern with budget, the 760 is the card to get.

I just downloaded the demo and cranked up all of the settings (@2560x1600) with my GTX 780... I was getting about 200 FPS in the flight sim part.In other words, this card is about 3x more powerful than you really need--anything over 60 frames per second is wasted on most monitors. You could spend only $150-200 and get something that's more than enough for flight sims. The GTX 760 is reasonably priced, as are the older versions of the Radeon cards (ex. 7950 Boost).

i picked mine from this list, make sure its better than onboard Intel graphics if you have that.http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

Personally. I would say stay with you EVGA gf GTX660 s2 than upgrading to the 760. However, Overall yes its better but the bump you get from it is like going from a 3ghz processor to a 3.5ghz processor. On paper ya its faster. Its better. But will you notice it right now in games. Probably not. I would wait for the next generation cards. IE the Geforce 860(dunno if thats gonna be the name but you follow what im saying) or even the 960. I went from the EVGA GTX 460 to this. So, dunno if this helps but thats my 2 cents worth.

It's a great card.However, like vamsee said, don't expect too much.In my opinion you'd be better off getting Gtx 700 series as they will out perform one of these for roughly the same price and you can always Sli them in the future.Gtx770 or Gtx780 would get the job done or wait a couple of days for reviews of the Gtx760.Sli Gtx760s are going to kick serious ass.

They are both great cards, and the 760 outperforms the 270x slightly. However, the big kicker is driver support which has dogged the R9 and other newer ATI models. I would suggest thinking about the games you plan to play and checking their individual support forums for any issues. Also, be sure to do a physical check in your case and make sure the card will fit. This card is incredible large and you might have interference issues with things like your hard drives.

Nvidia geforce gt 640 has twice the ram and a higher cuda count for just a little more. I bought the diamond card and was disappointed with it. Useless for modern gaming but decent for Blu ray.

When I got this, it was on sale with a different GPU. My is a AMD HD 7570. But the default is the GTX 630.

Yes it is better, the one from Nvidia that is similar and quite a bit superior in some points is the 750 gtx.

As I know the A8 has between 2.4 thru 2.9 Ghz rating and not 4.3 as you have related unless you are looking at extreme overclocking. Also, the HD graphics has a lower rating of 7550D and 6550D AMD graphics integrated into the processor. The A10 series graphics 7660HD graphics with 512MB DDR3 capability. If you want to really go for the gold then try checking out the A10-6800K APU. This is new to the market and even faster. It can max to 4.4 Ghz per core and has an even bigger graphics array. Hope this helps.

I might work, not sure about the on board Graphic being AMD if that will make a difference. Sure you can shut the on board graphics off in bios. If I where really you, I would go with a 760 or 770 if it's in your price range. They even got out a 750 ti boost that is a great card, but I would go with a 760 or higher if it would work on your board. Could ask Evga. I have 2 of those 660 FTW sig 2 GPU's 2-way SLi. They preform great but even I want to upgrade here soon. Hope this helps in some way.

I cant really say, I just use mine for light gaming. As a matter of fact I just ordered a GTX 760 as an upgrade today. (its been a nice card for the price though)

I havent seen that card running but it has almost the same specification of the 760, tho its only 192bits and 960 cuda cores againts the gtx760 that has more of thoses,the gtx660t has 1gb more of RAM, So I bet it will run those games just fine; but I would recommend you the GTX760, it is 1+year newer, 2gb of GDDR5 its good enough, it is 256bits and 1152 cuda cores, with a cheap CPU I'm running almost everything in ultra.Do your research and good luck!

I have this card and it's great. It's a little loud, but it can play all games at max settings with a good frame rate. The nvidia 680 is a bit more powerful, but may not be supported by an apple display. Also it is more expensive.

Graphics Card = NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M GDDR3 (2.0GB) w/ Optimus Technology. Not sure why Amazon doesn't have this listed as a bullet point on the product description, but we'll look into and see if we can get it updated. Thanks! - XOTIC PC.
