I see an OP and two posts that actually tried to help. If you cant do anything more than troll the thread yourselves, move along and don't bother posting here. Remember you and I were all new once, and I'm sure there is a thread like this in all of our logs for some tech site or another.

radrok · Aug 6, 2012, 09:21 PM

I'll attempt to give you an answer.

First of all you should watch some reviews, especially the Techpowerup ones, they are without any doubt the best content on graphics you can find on the internet.

There is no best brand, there is the best brand for what you play, and this is told to you by reviews, you pick some titles you wanna play then watch the performance from both camps and then make a summary with what performs best for what you play.

AMD is strong on some game titles and NVIDIA is strong on some other game titles.

^ Read up some reviews of the cards you're interested in/in your budget range. Then, if necessary find some specific questions you have in a new thread.

Thank you.
