660 Ti upgrade to?

[mkextremer]

Which graphics card can I buy that is willing to give me more performance for +$50/$100?

 

[anti-duck]

GTX 750 Ti

That would be a downgrade lol 😛

You might be able to upgrade to a GTX 770 with that budget.

I say keep the 660ti and wait for Nvidia's 800 series Maxwell GPUs

+1

If you look a the 750 Ti they have just released the performance is very impressive for a 65w card. A higher end 150w version should be very good.

Whats the rest of your spec? As you might be able to upgrade something else for a performance boost.

facepalm, sorry but why would you buy a 240mm RAD AIO cooling and a OC board if you are not going to overclock. It's like buying a Bugatti Veyron that you're never going to race

 

[RobCrezz]

Why dont you plan to overclock, when you have a good mobo and cooler?

I planned on overclocking the CPU but I had a bad experience with the voltage on the MB..
I had to get into a lot of trouble to get another CPU so I can reset the CMOS on the MB
The jumper solution and the battery solution did not work.. >.>

Oh yeah and I got a 750 W Cooler Master Bronze PSU

Which Cooler Master is it because only one or two of the Cooler Master PSUs are actually good and the rest are utter garbage

 

[mkextremer]

Cooler Master 750 W GX Bronze

Did you try overclocking on the same board? Because normally with a bad overclock, your computer just won't go through POST and then eventually reset back to stock.

 

[mkextremer]

It didn't go back to stock, I guess I screwed up the voltage in the bios.. Now I am afraid to do it again
This time I wont be able to get another cpu

Your PSU is tier 4 on the PSU Hierarchy "Tier 4 - Not Recommend for stressful situations. May not be able to put out full rated power above room temperature, and may slightly fail to meet ATX specs."

Do you recommend a new PSU? If so, which one?
btw my budget is not so high

The XFX 550W Core Edition is the best PSU you can get under $100 and is in tier 2 on that PSU tier list which is a very good place
