Currently I have a computer that I built with:

intel i7-930
6 gbs DDR3 1600
EVGA FTW3 motherboard
GTX 470 graphics cards

Im getting the urge to upgrade something on my computer. I only really do gaming on my computer.

My initial plan was to get a second GTX 470 card and do SLI but no one sells the GTX 470 anymore. And the places that have them are selling them for an outrageous price. So my next thought was to get 2 560 Ti and SLI those but Since that is gonna cost me about $450 I wasnt sure if that would be the most effective use. Or maybe I should just get a more expensive single card. Or make another change.

Just looking for some advice. Or somebody potentially willg to seel me there GTX 470 for a reasonable price lol.
 
What is the make/model of your PSU?

A GTX560ti SLI is a very very good option.You can almost max out anything with it.But my advise is to go with a GTX580.Your spending $450 so you might as well go for the GTX580.That way whenever you have the money you can SLI GTX580 which should last for a while.
