    Thumbs up Top 5 Video Cards of 2013

    Well this is the year I shoulda gotten a video card but unfortunately I just couldn't wait at the time, so I got my 560 superclocked which up till now runs every game I play in 1080p with medium to high settings and 1 or 2 ultra settings.

    Don't think I need an upgrade till late next year or the following, although the cards that came out this year are really sweet. Which do you guys think should have made the top 5 for this year different from the review below?:

    Man I upgraded from a 560ti Hawk to a 760 and the difference is night and day. These newer cards really good.

    I bought myself the R9 270x XFX version on Black Friday. Not bad at all for the cheap price point. ($209)

    A 560ti isnt any better than a 5870. So please save the "I can play games at 1080p" for when you get a better card.

    Ahm... I wasn't comparing just making my point, and I don't need to run games at ultra settings. I don't have the 560ti I have the 560 superclocked edition.

    Gratz on your 5870 1% more performance though .

    Well don't know if it's slower or better but if it is slower the difference is probably about 5 fps max which is hardly worth the extra $100+, for which my version can be overclocked to get about that or more. But I not into the overclock ting so I lower settings instead.

    I know you got a newer card than mine already that uses almost 100 more watts of power than mine at full load, but to say you can't play everything at 1080p resolution you would have to prove that one so I can test it too.
