Hi guys,

I'm planning on building my PC in like a month or so, and the GPU that I'm considering is the GTX 660 ti.
I normally play games like League of Legends, MMORPGS (Dragon's Prophet, Aion, Blade & Soul...) and single player games (NBA 2k series, Crysis, Bioshock Infinite, ...).

Few questions:
1) Can the GTX 660 ti run new games (crysis or what not) at high/ultra with around 50~60 fps?
2) If I plan on buying a GPU in like June or July, will the GTX 660 ti be outdated?
3) Suggestions of other GPUs?

Thanks in advance!

nvidia is relaunching the kepler architecture in about 2 weeks. The gtx 780 the gtx 770 and the gtx 760ti (the gtx 760 ti release date has not yet been announced, but it should be within the next month or two)

The gtx 760 ti will be roughly 20% faster than the gtx 660 ti for the current price of the gtx 660 ti. I'd recommend you wait for that, and yes It will be perfectly fine for todays and next gen gams at 1080p.

A few things to add: you didn't mention what resolution you were using, but at 1080p a 660-Ti or 760 should run every game with high settings for a while. If you play on multi-monitors or ultra high resolutions like 2560 x 1600 or higher, then you'll need something more powerful if you want your graphics with high settings.

3) Other card suggestion: You seem to be looking at nvidia only, which is fine if that's what you want. But for about the same price of the 660-Ti you can get a Radeon 7950 which will give you more horsepower.
