So I'm currently running this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121775
With the following hardware:
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 BX80623I72600K
CORSAIR Enthusiast Series CMPSU-850TX 850W ATX12V v2.2 / EPS12V v2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Desktop Memory Model F3-17000CL11D-8GBXL
OCZ Vertex 4 VTX4-25SAT3-256G 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Seagate Barracuda STBD2000101 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Retail kit
MSI Z77 MPOWER LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Corsair Carbide Series 500R Black Steel structure with molded ABS plastic accent pieces ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
and an h100i intercooler on the CPU - with Noctua fans replacing all fans in the system for better air flow and a more quiet system.
I'm looking to upgrade the GPU - for maximum results with regards to improvement, without spending more than $500 (give or take)
My questions are - in the next few months is technology going to release that will cause a price drop in current cards that are better than what I'm running, by anywhere from $50 or more.
What card should I get, and should I wait for that new technology to release before getting it to save a few bucks.
Please note it must be an NVidia card, I run Nvidia 3D glasses, and have a BenQ 120 Hz monitor with built in NVidia 3D projection.
Thank you for your advice. I am looking for the best there is at $500 in the NVidia line - when taking into consideration the rest of my computer specs.
