Hello! im running a 560 ti and wanted to upgrade to 570 or something higher tier. Wanted to see what i was offered and such. Thank you for reading everyone!

well, how much are you willing to pay? and when do you need it

 

[sifulopez9]

no rush, looking for reasonable pricing, each card has its value.

you might consider adding another 560TI for 680+ performance

Do you really think ill see that much performance boost?

 

[morritse]

Yes. 2 560ti's gets more FPS than a single 680, by quite a large margin. As long as you have a 650w+ PSU, you're good

 

[vmem]

^+1 yeah that would be the way to go

to be honest, a 560ti is basically a crippled 570, so you won't see much performance gain at all unless you go to a 580, 670-680, or 7870/7950+ on the AMD side

wow thanks for the feedback both of you. Yea i was thinking on a 660 ti but man they are expensive, and I utilize physx quite a bit so nividia it is. Do you think i should wait till these new 700 series come out. an the 600's drop? or go 560 ti's in sli? thank again

I honestly think 560ti SLI is your best bet, you'll get performance that surpasses the current 680. there's the occasional headache of some game not supporting SLI configurations correctly, but most of those are quickly resolved and you can always come back here to ask questions

as for buying a new card, I would definitely wait for the 700 series, however, do note that Nvidia does not have a great history of dropping prices. if you look back to when the 600 series came out, the price of the 500 dropped a little bit, but then were either re-branded into the 600 series, or production simply stopped.

Yea very true, as i guess i would like to get a 560 ti used then to run an sli. I got mine used on here actually, might as well see what i can do. I got it for a good prie of 130 here.
