The graphics card is an essential component and when a new, demanding game comes out it can almost become an essential upgrade. But with so many options around why not let us help find you the best graphics card deals right now?
It’s the part of your rig responsible for pumping out pixels and if you’re not getting the smooth frame rates you deserve in Dark Souls III or Hitman, then it’s time to look for a new GPU. These are tricky times to decide on what GPU to buy, however, as new graphics cards are set to hit the shelves later this summer, but that means older stock is going to need to be shifted by those retailers...
Our guide to the best graphics card will tell you all you need to know about which video card is best for your needs but if you're after the absolute best graphics card deals around right now we’ve got your covered with our regularly updated deals page.
Some highlights this week: If you're trying to build a mini gaming rig on a budget then the 4GB Gigabyte GTX 960 is a great deal. And even if you're not it's a good price for some impressive gaming chops.
That 2GB MSI R9 380 is also a great graphics card deal too, especially if you're still rocking a 1080p monitor that you're planning on holding onto.
- The MSI R9 380 is a great price at the moment, though it is the 2GB version which is only really suitable for high-end 1080p gaming. That said it's a bargain for only £129.99 at CCL.
- If you're after a little more video memory though to make the step up to 1440p gaming, the top budget GPU today, the Radeon R9 380, can be picked up in full 4GB XFX trim, with a free copy of Ashes of the Singularity, for £159.98 at Novatech.
- For that instant 1080p gaming upgrade on even the lowliest of PCs, the half-height MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti is a great option and is just £86.01 at BTShop (formerly Dabs).
- If you're after a little more Nvidia power though the 4GB Gigabyte GTX 960 can be picked up in diminutive mini-ITX scale for just £164.99 at Novatech.
- If you're after some high-end pixel-pushing for your new VR purchase though the XFX R9 390, with its massive 8GB of video memory, is a good deal at £259.99 at Overclockers.
In our guide to the best graphics card we’ve detailed the three best GPUs in terms of the overall price/performance hero, the best high-end GPU for 4K and the best budget gaming video card too.
And here are the best prices we've found for each today...
"The GTX 970's overall performance is fantastic for the price. For most gamers, we still think this is the best value available."
"Why the GTX 980 Ti? Because at $650, it delivers nearly all of the performance of the $1000 Titan X."
"It's capable of delivering over 30 frames per second in Grand Theft Auto 5 at 1080p, 40+ fps in Shadow of Mordor and well over 60 fps in BioShock Infinite, all at ultra settings. Pretty damn good for a $200 card."
