Upgrading GTX 560

[KevinGrace]

Hello,

I was planning to upgrade my GTX 560 1gb ddr5, with something a bit more powerful and play with high details some new upcoming games like watchdogs. My price range is 350$ circa.
Do you have any suggestion?

Also I heard from some friends that I should keep my old card, because with 350$ I won't take anything much better than what I already have.
Do you agree with that?

Thank you!

I would get this. Will be a lot better than the 560.

GTX 770 is best choice in ur budget. No ur friends are not right, GTX770 is more than twice more powerful than ur 560. In the following benchmark ur GTX560 = GTX650ti

What PSU do you have?

Your CPU/Mobo could do with upgrading in the near future, but the gtx 770 should work fine with that.

ah yes sorry!
I have a Super-Flower SF650P14P 650W

no issues there! Power supply is a little cheap but it'll be fine.
For watchdogs, get the GTX 770.

Hope this helps.

Thats a good PSU. Yeah I would go for the gtx 770, with a plan to upgrade the CPU and motherboard in the near future.

Super Flower are one of the best PSU manufacturers.

they actually are fairly decent yes, I can agree, though there are better ones if he intends to overclock.
