your cpu is bit weak but will get the job done.(600w is plenty)

 

[skitz9417]

so my cpu will not bottleneck the gtx 660ti

 

[skitz9417]

because i have the gtx 550ti nowand would the gtx 660ti would be better

 

[hellfire24]

660ti is not a big jump over 550ti,sure it's faster but for $300,it's a NO.
how about spending a little more and grabbing a 670? it's a beast.

I thought GTX660Ti from a 550Ti is HUGE.

I went from MSI 560Ti to MSI 660Ti. And I feel like the difference is big. Now, I play BF3 on Ultra and Skyrim at High. BF3 looks awesome and never has lag (only internet lag)

You could sell a Used 560Ti for $170. So, MSI 660Ti at $300, is really like spending $130. So far I think it's worth it.

The 670 would be better, obviously, but at 1080p, the improvement wasn't justified for me. Just look at benchmarks.

not really.sure it is significantly faster than a 550ti but it's a horrible value.
gtx 670 for $80 more 100% worth it IMHO as it trades blows with 680 and 7970 at 1080p.

so gtx 670 woudnt bottleneck my cpu and could my psu handle it on idle and at max load

your net fps gain over what your bottleneck would be is a pos + would it bottleneck yes, but your getting more fps and higher aisoptric filtering.

[skitz9417]

what gtx 660ti or the gtx 670 would bottleneck my cpu and also inst bottleneck bad for my cpu

 

[skitz9417]

or do u think i should just get a gtx 560ti

 

[hellfire24]

how about a 7870? here's a good review-

[skitz9417]

hahahhahaa even at 1280by1024 it gets huge fps and so with my cpu and psu they will be able to handle it

 

[hellfire24]

what's your monitor resolution?

 

[skitz9417]

i have a 1280by 1024 but will be upgrading soon to 1680by1050

 

[amuffin]

550ti is good enough.

 

[hellfire24]

550ti is enough for your current setup.
and when you want a new monitor,get a 1080p display.

 

[skitz9417]

ok thanks

 

[skitz9417]

and if i got a 1680by1050 screen will i need to upgrade my gpu ?

 

[hellfire24]

^no.
