Advice on Video cards

[Guyverarmor]

Well, I currently play DCUO beta, and my 9500GT works fine with it... but I want to prepare for games coming out next year ( duke nukem, Star wars, Arkham city,etc.) Anyone have any good advice on a card? I got about 160$ to spend... was looking at this one:

Oh, and Diablo III. I know half of the games haven't released their specs but trying to get somewhere in the middle to play them decent. Any and all help is appreciated.


Also, I looked in the WTB/WTS area. Saw one I wanted, but was already sold

The one you wanted was my GTX 285. I sold it and bought a Radeon 6870. I plan on getting another down the line and crossfiring them. They're only $240(If you want to save up a bit longer) and perform almost as well as a GTX 470.

get a gtx 580

Or buy my 480 so I can get a 580

Out of your price range, but do it anyway lol.

I was thinking of a 460 possibly after all. Probably will wait for the black friday/monday sales to start on TD or Newegg

Ok, after much thought I bought this: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...&Sku=A271-6850

Heard some good things about the 6000 series. I do have a 600 watt PSU.. says requires 500, that should be enough no? Or should I upgrade to a 700?

That's a very good card. And the 6000 series is very low power consumption. Also if FFXIV ever gets to apoint where it can be enjoyable, you can just add a second 6850 and have a pretty nice setup for it.
