    I would definitely go no lower than a 650ti Boost and if its in your budget just go straight to the 660. I'm planning on getting the 670 2GB card when I upgrade my entire PC, but that'll be in january when I get 3 pays, plus holiday and more than likely my tax return as well.


    As for the power supply I would use this PSU Calc to give you a general idea of how big of a PSU you will need

    Thanks Gonzothegreat... so just to clarify (now that I know 1 letter can make all the difference)- your talking about a GSX660 right?

    See this is the part that got me - My current GC is 4Gb... so I immediately assumed it would be better than the 2Gb based on that... Still not quite sure how this works...

    You can't just go solely by the memory. The memory tbqh is pretty worthless as a stat to consider when comparing two different models. Now if you are comparing a 2GB 670 and a 4GB 670, then yes it does make a difference, but when its two different models, you need to compare the Shaders, GFLOPs, Pixel Rate etc.

    And it is the GTX, i don't even think the use GT past the 630, but i may be wrong. You always want to look for the GTX. (for the most part)
