Well Miranda, according to the comparison here: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/777?vs=854 The GTX 760 here will double your graphics performance. The i7 and RAM shouldn't slow you down, so upgrading your video card is probably your best bet. *EDIT* Also, don't pay over 265$ for this card. The 300$ listing is because someone wants to overcharge while Amazon restocks. The MSRP is 250$. Newegg has them in stock if you're looking to buy and amazon hasn't restocked yet.

Hi Julio,I'm afraid I can't answer that question. I'm not a heavy gamer. I use it for Adobe Photoshop CS6 on two 24 inch monitors. I have no issue with it on ASUS Sabertooth motherboard with AMD FX08150.Keep in mind that this video card runs on 128-bit bus. You'll have better experience with 7870 at 256-bit bus. But as you know it costs more. So, the question is, how much are you willing to spend.. And one more thing, 7770 doesn't need 6-pin PCIe power. if you can find ASUS 7790 with 2gigs, even though it's still running 128-bit bus, it may be worth while for you since it'll cost you just over $20.00+ over 7770 with 2gigs. (and yes, 7790 needs 6-pin PCIe power)Sorry I couldn't be more of help... Hi Julio,I'm afraid I can't answer that question. I'm not a heavy gamer.

Oh most definatly! It runs planetside 2 on ultra with 30 - 40 fps. It can also run battlefield 3 pretty well and basicly any game you want to on extreme with a minimum of 15 fps! I would definatly reccomend this card because not only is it a good price, but it also is pretty amazing to use!

I have FX-4130 Quad 3.8GHz with Radeon HD-6570 2gb. I can only use Catalyst on disc it came with. I cannot update to new Catalyst drivers

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.

yes but it also depends on youre pc specs. i have 2 of this gfx card in crossXfire and i run everything in ultra settings.......so the anwser to youre question is yes......im working on some mod in gta4 real life gfx with ice enchancer 3.0 totaly awsome!!!

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 am looking to upgrade my old card to use with this board. I won't go past $200 for a single card so the best option might be a GTX660 (Nvidia). I'm sure you can get a better card that won't be bottlenecked, but some people i know who bought this board also bought the GTX560 series cards. Hope I helped.

MatthewI do not know the specs of the Gateway. From personal experience selecting a new video card, check the system requirements of the card and make sure your computer has the right stuff, especially the power supply.

I use it for my gaming machine on one pci-e x16 slot. It's VERY good. Stable, easy to install and the 2gb really crank out the graphics. I'm playing skyrim, da2, me3 and other graphic intensive games with any trouble. I recommend it. Larry

We do not suggest to use this mid range GPU card to play heavy game like GTA V. Please consider GTX970 or GTX960. Here the link for GTX970 http://www.amazon.com/NVIDIA-Geforce-GTX-4GB-video-card-overclocked-Display-monitors/dp/B00NRKSR1Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430807983&sr=8-1&keywords=inno3d+gtx970 http://www.amazon.com/NVIDIA-Geforce-GTX-video-card-overclocked-PCIE3-0-monitors/dp/B00V9YPG0K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430808095&sr=8-1&keywords=inno3d+gtx960 Thanks Copystars Support team

This card will play it but the frame rates would be sad. Sub 20's probably. Go for an 8600GT or better yet GTS You'll get double the performance for not much more money. Also depends on what processor/ram you have?? Woody

I haven't got a clue .... I run it with W7 64 Professional on an i5 for X-Plane Flight Simulator .... Works great!Abe

Yes its great, I have Flight Simulator X. It works good on this computer. Better than I thought it would.

I'm actually on it right now. It read directx 11.1 with exactly 562.2 mb of reserved memory for graphics. It cannot be changed from bios or anywhere else. If it is any consolation, it runs WOW on ultra at 24 fps

Amazingly I still have the box. My box is PNY and smaller, 1 Gb and just checked it and has the low profile adapter (still in plastic !) Actually it has two, so you can use the VGA and HD connections side by side. Kind of dumb to use the VGA connector these days. Just one thing, I get a 7.3 and 7.4 on CPU (6 core AMD) and memory (8 GB 8200) but only 4.8 (lowest I have) so this is no "gaming" card. I have a work PC (6 core AMD and 8 Gb memory) and another $35 GForce card with the same stinky results. I have Win 7 and use this so I can see the 12 Pale Moon pages I have open with the "peep" turned on. I'm a school tech, so lots of checking and sites open at work and home. I'm usually 1.3 Gb of web page memory. My work one is a 500 MB memory GForce... To get high scores.. you need those $300+ cards. I have watched Amazon TV at full screen and it comes up in HD (24" monitor) real nice. Google it and you'll hear the same results, not for big time gaming (high frame rates) and that stuff no matter how much memory.
