Graphics card upgrade

[gavin-d]

Hi. I currently have a NVIDIA geforce gtx 960 graphics card in my current gaming PC whist it's still fine and working tech is moving on and I'm looking to upgrade it

What would be the best to get in today's market that's close to what the gtx 960 offers

What's your budget?

Also usually you don't want to upgrade to the latest version of a GPU ( 16 or 20 series ) to get the same level of performance. If we know your budget then we can recommend the best performance for your buck and show how that compares to your current GPU.

Hi. I'd say up to £200 as a budget

Hi and welcome.

Can you give us a little background on your system spec (CPU/PSU/resolution)?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x KFA2 GeForce GTX 1660 1-Click OC 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £199.99

Total: £209.89 (includes shipping: £9.90)​

​

Alternatively, a 570 4GB goes for £120ish and that's gonna be at least 60% improvement over the 960. You can find a lot of cheap 570/580s used too, which are <£100. Great bargains!

Because I wouldn't recommend that crap dragon card to my worst enemy.

Got in contact with the manufacture, and they've said an Nvidia 1660 or 1660ti is the max I can go to for my system

Do the 1660 and 1660ti have a huge amount of difference between them?

Looking at this and the 1660 ti I'd never get the ti to fit given the dimensions state it's 15 inches in length

The 1660 would fit perfectly and is virtually the same size as my current one
