Hi, I have an AMD Phenom 9600 quad-core processor 2.3 GHz, 7.00GB of RAM, on a 64-bit operating system, Windows 7, 875GB of storage, with an existing NVIDIA Geforce 9800 GT. I'm not HEAVY into gaming, but I do play games such as D3, RIFT, Neverwinter Nights, Sims 3, Global Agenda, TERA, WoW, Battlefield 2142...basically MMORPG's with a more recent being only Battlefield 3. What I want to do is upgrade my graphics card to an EVGA GeForce GTX 550ti Superclocked and want to know if this is a smart idea. I'm not a hardware tech and know very little, I'm trying to educate myself but it's difficult to compare against as the 9800 GT I'm running is kind of outdated. I'm not looking to upgrade my CPU for a while and when I do, I'm sure it will be a complete overhaul, or at the very least and upgrade to an i-3 card. I'm not looking for Battlefield on ultra-high graphics, I'm just looking to upgrade the graphics of my MMO games as they all look quite pix-elated, and quite edgy. Right now, my budget is VERY slim as I'm selling old consoles and stuff I don't use and putting THAT fund into our computer as an upgrade for me and my wife. Right now, I'm open to about 150ish, but not much more. I can get some mailed off tigerdirect for 146.99...is it worth my money to get it, or is there a more cost-effective one I can get? Like I mentioned before, I'm not after anything high-end, I'm just looking for an upgrade I can carry over at the cheapest price I can get.
