Okay, here's my current setup:
*twin 8800 GTS 320 cards, SLI
*3 Gb system RAM
*nforce 680i LT motherboard
*and a q6600 intel cpu
Basically, I just need to know if it would be worth my time to purchase a new graphics card. For a long time I was looking at the GTX 280, but I read somewhere that they are getting harder to find, and I would agree with that. I have since started looking at the GTX 275 since it's just about the only thing in my price range I think. I've been playing a lot of GTA IV, and I know that game relies a lot on a good cpu, but for the future, is a GPU upgrade going to help me out the most? Or should I look for something else to upgrade first? I enjoy currently using SLI, but it makes a lot of heat, and I'd like to return to a single card. Will the GTX 275 give me the same or better performance results that I presently have? Holy crap thanks for any help, really!
