Current rig:

i7 860 2.8 GHz w/Hyper Threading

CoolerMaster V8 CPU cooler

8 GB Ram OCZ3SG1600LV4GK (4x2Gigs)

120 GB OCZ Vertex 2 SSD OCZSSD3-2VTX120G

500 GB WD Black HDD

EVGA P55 SLI 132-LF-E655-KR A72 BIOS

EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 SC 896-P3-1257-AR

Thermaltake TR2-850 modular PSU

CoolerMaster 690 Case

Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

 

Looking at getting a new vid card and I'm going to wait a month to get a bigger SSD since black friday and cyber monday are going to be here shortly.

 

IDK if I want to go 670, 660 Ti or 660..

I have 2 1080 monitors and my 260 cannot handle BF3. I do watch movies and play games at the same time on occasion. Yes, I am sticking with nvidia.

 

Part numbers availiable at my local Microcenter (even though it's an hour drive lol)

04G-P4-2673-KR

02G-P4-2678-KR

02G-P4-2676-KR

02G-P4-2670-KR

03G-P4-3663-KR

02G-P4-3662-KR

02G-P4-3660-KR

02G-P4-2662-KR

 

I dont really want to spend more than $500 tonight and i'm thinking of picking up a cheap small SSD for another pc I have. So I was thinking the 03G-P4-3663-K

http://www.microcenter.com/product/399050/03G-P4-3663-KR_NVIDIA_GeForce_GTX_660_Ti_Superclocked_3072MB_PCIe_30_x16_Video_Card

 

They have an OCZ Vertex Plus SSD 60 GB for $40 after MIR, but I might wait a month and upgrade my current SSD and stick the current one in my P4 machine. I should have jumped on a PCIe SSD about a month ago, just didn't have the $

 

 

Does anybody have any insight on this? It's a big step up regardless, but this 260 isnt cutting it for being almost 4 year old tech.

 

Thanks!
