Upgrade time

I have been saving a little bit of money due to wanting to buy a FX chip but seeing the reviews I have decided not to and to spend my money else where.

Current specs are:

1055T @ 2.8Ghz (Will be clocking it higher when new Baram arrives)
Gigabyte 990XA-UD3 motherboard
8gb Mushkin Silverline Ram
PNY GTX460 768mb
Intel 40gb ssd
2 x 1tb hdds
Thermaltake Toughpower 750w psu
Xigmatek Midgard case

I was either thinking about a bigger ssd or newer gpu.

Currently have between £150 - £200 to spend maybe more if I decide to sell the 460 and go for something else.

What do you guys think?

flog the 460 and upgrade to a 570.

MSI 560ti Twin Frozr II 2096GB. £200.

I was thinking a long the lines of a 560ti or 570.

Cheers

Yeah. I would get the extra VRam for the 560ti. Or the 6950 2GB. In the same ballpark as the 560ti.
