Video Card Upgrade

[Keemen]

Here is my computer-it is running better now. I have some funds to upgrade the video card. I am currently using a GTX-9600 (using a PCI Express slot).

I'm thinking about upgrading to:

1st choice - GeForce GTX 470 $300.00 - 350.00(not sure if this is overkill for my processor)

3rd choice - GeForce GTX 460 $159.00 - 200.00

To be honest, you'd get a bigger upgrade by getting a new CPU. All of those graphics cards are overkill when comparing it to your CPU.

Thank you, I was thinking the same myself, but wanted someone with more knowledge than myself to say that.

get a msi 460 hawk.
and overclock that card with bit luck it will even perform on par with gtx 480.
and its defiantly better then a 470 even on stock probaly.

edit:

like others say'd upgrade your cpu.

i would look into getting i5 in that case cant go wrong.

just buy a whole new computer, that computer isnt worth upgrading, all the parts are far-outdated to perform well with new hardware in the mix
