Hello!

I'm switching out my Palit 1GB GTX 560 Ti and looking for a new graphics' card. I don't want to overpay but at the same time I want to be able to run games smoothly in the near future aswell - for example Battlefield 4 etc.

I'd use it for gaming (Battlefield 3) and on 1920x1080 resolution. Budget set around 250 EUR = ~ 330USD. What is important is that it'd have no cooling issues and wouldn't be as loud as a helicopter. I don't expect it to be dead silent, but not too loud either.

I've got a Corsair CX500W PSU.

So far I've got my eye on MSI GTX 660Ti Power Edition OC -http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N660Ti-PE-2GD5-OC.html

Would it be a good choice? Are there anything better in terms of price/performance in that price bracket?

Thanks in advance!

of course it is better, a GTX 760 is also better than an HD7950

GTX760>hd7950>gtx660ti>hd7870>gtx660>hd7850

your GPU choice is very good and very sufficient for modern games now :)

The pricing is different where I live, also the versions You opted for aren't available.

What about this: Gigabyte GTX 760 WindForce OC 2 GB - is it better than the MSI 660 Ti PE OC?
