Best GPU upgrade

[a03dugga]

Hey guys, looking to get a gpu upgrade very soon,
Not looking to spend too much but something that will be quite an improvement over my current card.

Specs are:

• Asus extreme 4 gen 3
• i5 2500k @ 4.6ghz
• GTX 460 1Gb DirectCu
• 16gb Kingston Hyper x
• 650w BeQuiet PSU

Any suggestions?

I was offered a 560ti 1gb for 80 quid but felt it wasn't worth an upgrade from my card to that.

A 7850 would be a decent upgrade from that

Yeah but no PhysX

 

[a03dugga]

Any particular reason you need PhysX? Only a few games support and the only game I see any real difference in is BL 2.

Not really, i dont play borderlands 2 anymore, the replay value has kinda worn off for me to be honest.

Not sure until payday but most likes around 160-ish, not sure yet though.

Hey guys, my budget as been revised, its going to be around £300 now, hopefully getting a new card this week or next, anyone have any more suggestions? Im terrible at picking between multiple things.

Stuck between:
This
This
This
This

Or
This

I just cant make up my mind about amd or nvidia.
I'm mostly stuck between a GTX 670, 660Ti OR a 7970/7950.
Help...

Mmm ive only just decided to go for the 7950 twin frozr 3gb, im glad that ive finally settled on a card.

I cant wait, do you know if i can use my 460 as a physx-only card?

No bother, its no big deal either way.
