Actually a GTX460 768MB/1GB would be faster than the GTX280 and with dx11 support for under £120.If you want a newer card with DX11 support and similar performance to the GTX280 you'll be looking at £130+
one more "expensive / better range" card is better than two "cheaper / bottom range" cards...
So personally, for gaming....
Nope.....
Unless your rig is only going to be running silly graphics games like minecraft lol
I've never bought a year old one that I can recall but a couple of times I've picked up the 2nd card 5-6 months later.
I can't understand it when people say or recommend to buy a graphics card now and then buy another for sli in a few years when they need it.
In nearly all cases I have seen or heard of, said person has decided to sell their current card and buy a new more modern one instead.
Has anyone bought a year old card or a two year old card for SLI/Crossfire?
