Hello all,
I've been playing with dual GTX 460s for years now, but I think it is about time to upgrade. My current system is:

ASUS P6X58D Premium
Intel i7 950
18gb RAM
2x EVGA GTX 460s
SSD HDs etc.etc.

I use two 27 inch monitors at 1080p usually. I plan on playing ESO when it comes out, and I play a bunch of other games... I want to upgrade my system with a single card that will last a good amount of time (these 2 have lasted me almost 4 years!).

For a price range, I'm looking at <500, hopefully around 400 or less.

Right now it really looks like the GTX 770 is the best bang for my buck, so I'm just trying to figure out WHICH card to buy. Here are just a few that I've been looking at:

Any advice?
 
Solution
Basically a gtx 770 or R9 280x are the two best cards at this price point. It would be a nice upgrade from sli 460 and the difference will be very noticeable in the newer titles.

Thanks AK. I'm pretty set on the 770, just trying to find the best 770 at this point. Looks like I can chose between EVGA, gigabyte, or some others, but the Gigabyte windforce 4GB seems to be the best atm. That sound about right?
