Hi,

I currently have a 560 ti classified ultra and I was thinking of upgrading. I plan on selling the card for ~$100 and then taking that money and tossing in another $150-$200 for a new graphics card.

What card should I get if my budget is $300? Or should I wait a little bit for the next generation of cards?

My current build shouldn't be a problem:
550w PSU
i5-3570k

Thanks!

For that budget your looking at a GeForce 760 or 660 Ti or an Radeon 7950.

The next step up is the 7970 but that comes in at $350.

So for the first 3 choices you can get deals at $249 which is saving you a bit of cash.

Personally i'd go GTX 760 or the HD 7950.

Between the two the 7950 has more bandwidth but the 760 is a little quicker.

Everyone and their dog is going to say the 760 because its the latest card out so I'm just showing you a few alternative options.
