Before anyone replies with "go with a 460 instead" please understand i am planning to build a gaming PC about 6-9 months from now. Replacing my psu in my &^%$ gateway desktop is not a option for me at this point.
As for the question, I currently have a 450 gts http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130663 and looking to go with a Zotac gtx 550 ti AMP overclocked edition http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500194&Tpk=550%20ti%20amp. Is it realistic to expect a 10 fps increase with this new card or am i looking at a minimal gain of 4-5 fps ?
The only games I will be playing for the next several months or so are, in order
1. Star Wars the Old republic ( This is the most important)
2. Battle field 3
3.Skyrim
