Thinking of upgrading my Graphics Card, any suggestions?

I have a Nvidia GT560Ti at the minute, but its only got 1gb of memory, which isn't bad, but a little more memory is always a bonus. Any ideas of what Graphics Card I could replace it with? In the £100-£250 range.
 
At the minute the 7950 is probably the best bet for that price but it'd be worth waiting until next week to see how the 660 Ti is when it launches.

Cheers man, I think I am probably going to have a look at the 660Ti then, im not all that knowledgeable on the subject so I haven't go much of an idea of what to get.
 
Hi and welcome to the forums :)

What's the rest of your spec and what main games do you play?

Processor: Intel Core i7-2600K CPU 3.40GHz
RAM: 8Gb
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit

At the moment im playing Crysis 1+2, GTAIV, Skyrim. I've also pre ordered Hitman Absolution, Assassins Creed 3 and Sleeping Dogs.

I don't know all that much about the subject but the card I have at the moment runs the games at high fine (to my eye anyway) but I do notice a bit of screen tearing and frame rate drops every now and again.
 
Well, you've got a nice system there, it'd be lovely paired with a GTX670, reference ones are coming down to around £280 now and dropping slowly, or as already mentioned the next best would be the AMD 7950.

Personally I'd stretch the budget to a 670 :)

Looked into overclocking your 560 Ti to see if it can help a bit?

Cheers, yeah im thinking that i might either wait for the 66Ti to be released, or wait till the price comes down a little more on the card you just suggested. Cheers for your help :)
