Is GTX 560 to GTX 760 a good upgrade?

[Bromantic]

So, I am planning on upgrading my GTX 560 to a 760, and I've found a good way to buy it and all for it's real price and all, but is there any better way to upgrade? I've recently played the BF4 beta and I'm also planning on getting it on it's release around the corner. On the game I couldn't even run low graphics without dropping down to 30-40 fps. Is upgrading to the 760 going to be good for atleast playing on high settings without dropping below 60 fps?

Thanks in advance.

From what I have read the R9 280x has better performance than both the Nvidia cards and I believe it is priced just above the GTX 760 at USD 300. Another note to add is the new AMD drivers are kick ass and seem to provide a massive performance boost. The R9 also has 3Gb RAM which gives you a little bit of headroom with future proofing your GPU.

depends whether you want nvidia?

Yes, it would be a substantial improvement, but I'd advise waiting a couple months before you pull the trigger on it. With the new AMD cards out, the competing Nvidia cards will very likely come down in price substantially. I'd bet the 760 will be below $200 before too long.

This actually made me change my mind, I looked it up (Radeon R9 280x) and it actually is a lot better than what I was going to buy, thanks for helping out man ;D
