Can anyone tell me what graphics card for under 600 is the best? It's for my gaming PC. And will games run faster when using a DEDICATED Graphics card VS Motherboard-graphics card?
In a month time I want to buy a Graphics card and well.... I'm being drowned in the options so hopefully you guys can show me to way to the Land of Oz... Oh... Wait...
Of course. Dedicated GPUs are much more faster than On-board graphics (Fortunately, is not always the case. At least in the entry-level section).
Since we don't know which Core i5 you have we'll need you to do this simple thing: System Specs - Fill in at Ten Forums Site Use Tutorials.
This is to help you find the suitable GPU for your system to avoid bottleneck.
You don't supply enough information to permit a real recommendation.
Does your motherboard have a PCI-E X16 graphics slot? (It almost certainly does, but it's good to be sure.)
What's the rating of your PSU (power supply unit)?
Does your PSU have PCI-E auxiliary power connectors? High-end graphics cards require those. For example: one nVidia GTX1070 that I looked at requires a single 8 pin PCI-E connection.
Those of us in the USA have trouble recommending cards in Europe based on budget. I'd hope that a $500US card could be had for €500 at the moment in the Netherlands, but I can't verify that.
