Gpu $100-300 aud

Hi!

I am looking for a GPU that will be able to run Dota 2 on max settings.

My 2 x 1GB HD5450's are pretty bad and my mouse delays on other games as well from humble bundles etc.

I think it is the card what are your thoughts. 

Any help would be appreciated.

and also, should i get the GPU now or later?

 

well first off i would try to make sure its the cards causing the problem, however its always nice to upgrade the video cards occasionally

this card shoud be able to run Dota: Radeon 7870

how might I do that?

i was afriad u would ask that, probly run system diagnostics and make sure everything else is clicking in place, is the ram all acounted for, is the cpu running at reasonable temp, etc

if everything else seems fine i would get the new card

Well if you were looking for a reference for prices for GPU's, PC Case Gear has a good website and usually their one of the cheapest (give or take $20).

Here is the website if you wanted to check it out: PCCG

You can pickup a 7870 for around $250 - $280 and shipping shouldn't be too expensive.

 

ok thanks!
