card performance rankings &#8211; how does your GPU compare?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>It is difficult to keep track of what graphics are the best value, and different PC builds\u00a0can have different hardware requirements, meaning that users may wish to purchase a specific performance tier of graphics card in order to get the best performance for the lowest\u00a0price.<\/p>\n<p>It can be difficult to choose between Nvidia and AMD graphics cards, especially when the two companies&#8217; performance data tends to be skewed and relatively unreliable when comparing between them.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tomshardware.com\/reviews\/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html\" target=\"_blank\">Tom&#8217;s Hardware<\/a><\/strong> has created a global GPU performance ranking chart based on their third-party benchmarks.<\/p>\n<p>This data ranks graphics cards from both Nvidia and AMD in multiple\u00a0performance tiers, allowing users to easily see how their graphics card measures up against the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the graphics card performance rankings below, sorted from most powerful to least powerful:<\/p>\n<div class=\"myg_table\">\n<div
