I've a ASRock Z68 Extreme 4 with 2500K CPU and XFX Radeon 5830 1GB graphics card. Looking to swap out the graphic card for something stronger. Can you suggest something suitable please?

My setup is just over 5 years old now but still think more than capable for most of my needs. My son loves playing World of Tanks and he'd like the fps to improve.

Would we see much of an improvement from one of the new Nvidia 10 series cards, like this:

I'd be looking at a 4 gig card over a 2 gig card to be honest with you. Might be worth spending the extra £20 now, rather than wishing you had much later on.

Thanks everyone for your input here.

Got the 1060 installed tonight and it's taken my GPU score on UserBenchmark from ~19% to 93%. Well happy :)
