hi, i need to upgrade my graphics card and need some advice. any is welcome.
here's my set up

CPU: intel i7 950 3.06ghz

RAM: 6GB

Motherboard: Asus P6X58D Premium Sli ready

PSU: 600w

Nvidia Geforce GT520 (this was purchased due to a leak from cooling system as a temporary solution)

cooling: Coolit vantage

looking to spend under £200

i understand that having a cooling system is unnecessary so am open to suggestions of cooling systems that are not water cooled
i am also open to any other suggestions

Iv'e been looking at the Asus-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-560Ti-Graphics-Video-Card-1GB-830MHz-PCI-Express-HDMI

i want to be able to play games like the witcher 2, skyrim, SWTOR, Crysis 2 etc. on high spec if possible

thanks

I'd take almost the same card but perhaps another make as i don't like asus graphic cards and i also wouldn't go with a radeon as i had some bad experiences with 2 of them.
The "Zotac Geforce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores 1GB" might be the best choice from the tomshardware chart but indeed anything with 20fps or more in this test should be more than enough for full hd gaming.

There's so many possibilitie. A starting point would be THG's Best Graphics Cards For The Money: February 2012. Pick your price range and see what they say (or go directly to this page for < £200)
