Out of curiosity i swapped in my two 260s and got a score of 5700 on low which is the kinda bump i was looking for. so maybe the CPU, board, and ram are ok i just gotta splash on the better card to have it a little future proof.
Yeah, nothing wrong with that I suppose. The new CPU and RAM are more future-proof than your old ones anyway. But buying that GPU if you plan to replace it with a better one anyway... why not use your 2x260 in the meantime instead?

I actually wanted to get myself a second 260GTX, but the power consumption and the fact ffxiv didn't scale properly (=no performance increase) made me decide against it. Now that the devs said ARR will scale better with SLI, it could make sense to get one after all.
