Hey all. First off Id like to thank all that have helped me in the past on here. You are appreciated. But now I have a dilemma of sorts. Ive been sifting thru and sorting video cards for about two weeks now. I landed on this MSI Twin Frozr 760 OC and it looked awesome.

The price seems ok and I even get $25 off for being a new customer at Newegg.
But ive been asking myself if this card will secure my gaming needs for the future. I don't wanna have to rebuy another card for a long time.(GTX 770 are $400!! That's crazy! 760 to 770 and its pretty much twice as much! The one I was considering and I cant even believe im thinking about it is a MSI N770 Lightning GeForce GTX 770 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support and its $450!! Well $425 with the discount but a $400 Video Card!!
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127742) Right now im runnin a Geforce 9400 GT. Weak I know. Besides Crysis which I could care less about and running Skyrim with every mod which is just ridiculous imo,
Will the MSI Gaming N760 TF 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 run most everything at ultra settings? Examples are Splinter Cell Blacklist, Bioshock Infinite, Batman Arkham City, Saints Row 4, Dead Island: Riptide,Skyrim(With maybe a mod or 2. Not all ofem) Or even the upcoming Call Of Duty: Ghosts in SP, etc
I wish the 2GB GTX 770 weren't twice as much. Id actually buy one..
So then in 2 years the GTX 780 will be like the 760 now because graphics will be 100x better or more and they will have a new card. Maybe a GTX 1100 or something... So it wouldn really matter in the long run because it will play the games I like to play now on max settings but in 2 years it wont and Ill have to buy another one to keepup lol. Well, I have to say this would be my first real major video card purchase. Ive never spent more then $100 on a Video Card. Guess If I get 2 or 3 years out of this 760 then It will be worth it. Ive had this 9400GT since 2009.
If I could get a GTX 780 I would but I don't have $650 to spend on a card.
(Which is just Ridiculous btw. If your gonna spend that much on a card, Why not get a Titan for $350 more or Sli 2 760 together or 770)
