depends on your cpu as well. your cpu could be bottle necking the performance of your card. it's overall a good card to upgrade to but make sure you got a good cpu as well with it or else you will experiance bottle necking with it. when i upgraded i got both a new cpu and gpu.

I got your question in an email, and yes this is a god solid card to look at, but also games like sc2 are often prone to lag by the cpu load. make sure you have a good cpu to handle all of that.

I would say that it would be a good upgrade, it smashes the benchmarks compared to the 5770, and is better in almost every way... It can easily run two or even three monitors, I do it all the time. It depends on what you're planning to do with this card. Gaming and hd rendering I would say go for it, but make sure that you have other components that are powerful enough that they dont bottleneck it. http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-HD-5770-vs-GeForce-GTX-770

Yes, I think the previous user response about RAM is important too. I have this card and easily get 70-75fps consistently. If you buy this card you should be set for some time...

On my rig this card runs Battlefield 4 on ultra with almost everything maxed. As to whether you should buy this one you might want to check out the new AMD cards before you make you're decision.

Yes, but it depends on how many frames you want, which ultimately depends on how good your monitor's refresh rate it. I am getting about 60 frames but I don't believe I have my settings maxed out. It's been a while since I played the game, but I remember balancing frames, graphics, and refresh rate the best I could. I've been very happy with the card and I'm running the old OG i7 CPU. This is a great card for the money. However, with the newer 700 series cards out, you may want to consider those. When I bought my 670, only the 680 and 690's beat it. And the 680 barely beat the FTW version of the 670. Tests revealed only a couple frames difference (4 or 5 iirc). Great card for great price.

Yes, the result is very good, no hiccups at all. Stick a coolmaster 212 evo on that cpu and run sc2(cpu and gpu intensive game) on ultra settings get well over 100+fps @ 1080p while staying at about 45 degrees on both the cores and gpu. In fact since it worked so well I purchased another one of these to put in crossfire. I will be trying Crysis and BF4 as benchmarks soon.

It has a low effect on FPS. If you are looking for more FPS you want a faster card, not one with more ram. This card should get you 30 FPS in most modern games, 60 fps in older ones and games that are well optimized (Very few well optimized games on PC)

I game a lot with this card. It's not high end, but it's pretty beefy. You should be fine.

Yes it is an improvement but not a hugely massive one. The R7 260x is virtually an overclocked 7xxx series. This card is perfect for 1080p gaming and converts video well. If you are looking for leaps and bounds in performance I would go with an R9 series. This card is a pretty good improvement on what you have now though.

Doing the same swap, have done my homework and for gaming your framerate should boost tremendously. I have HD 6870s CF'd and Only get around 90 Frames in CSGO, upgrading this should boost the frames alot not sure how much but I expect at least a 60 frames difference.

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!

No, you may have success with 7970 + r9 270x but absolutely not with 7770. They have different GPUs. Dump 7770, it is too slow

Hi Leonardo, the video card will not handle the most demanding games at the highest settings. It is great for most online & basic games but not at the highest resolution or settings.

I apologize for my extremely slow reply. Life has been challenging lately. I do not play Rome 2. So I truly don't know. HOWEVER, I do play Crysis and other FPS with no stutters, frame freeziing or machine meltdown.Other components of my machine include 16 GB of RAM, an Intel i7 4770k processor, an MSI ATX Z87-G45 motherboard, a Noctua NH-D14 for cooling.In other words the XFX Radeon R9 280x is supported by a stable of quality components. I'm sure you have similar components for rig. I'd go for it. No question.

I upgraded graphics card and power supply , however even before doing do it could still run newer games just average specs on graphics unless you upgrade , mainly lacks shadow detail (stock graphics card) but still def worth it

Hi Tom, I am very satisfied with the performance of this card, it supports all the latest games with the graphics settings maxed out (Crysis 3, Bioshock Infinite, Metro Last Light, Grid 2, Starcraft 2, etc), by the way, the gpu temperature is amazingly cool. I don't know the specs of the 770 but i am sure the 670 can handle all the latest games with no problem. About the memory, yes, is important when you want to use high resolutions with high textures that normally surpasses the 2Gb level.

Yeah it should be great. I also play a lot of games and everything I've downloaded off Steam is runnable on this card. You might not be able to max settings in all games, but it was running smoothly for me on newer games like the new Metal Gear Solid and I get 120+ fps in Counter-Strike.
