Hey I'm not that great with computers but I wanted some advice in upgrading my graphics card or adding another one? My computer supports SLI/Crossfire
My current video card is: AMD Radeon HD 6850 1GB GDDR5 16X PCIe Video Card
Some specs about my computer:

CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i7-960 3.20 GHz 8M Intel Smart Cache LGA1366
MEMORY: 6GB (2GBx3) DDR3/1600MHz
MOTHERBOARD: (3-Way SLI Support) EVGA X58 SLI™ 3 Intel X58 Chipset SLI/CrossFireX Triple-Channel DDR3/1600+ ATX Mainboard w/ 7.1 HD Audio,
POWERSUPPLY: 600 Watts - XtremeGear Power Supply - SLI/CrossFireX Ready

My budget is around $200 I wanted to know if it would be better to upgrade my card or add another one. If you guys could give me some advice it would be much appreciated, thanks!

Dear cripler!

You need more money ~ $250, around $50 bucks. With this budget you can easly find a better card. For example GeForce GTX660 is now one of the best deal for your money! Change your 6850 in $200 range is not an upgrade.

Or even a GTX 660 Ti Boost. One of the best mid-range cards.
