Hi! What are good (and cheap :P ) graphics cards these days? Not more than 160-170€. I was thinking of a new GeForce GTX460 1GB (same as this I'm using now), I don't know if there's better ones out there, but I think it has been running pretty good, untill now. It should be able to play WoW on Ultra. If this is the wrong section to post this, a mod can move it or something.
If you've already got a GTX 460, and you don't have more than 170€, it's not worth buying a new card. And post full specs.
Or you can go SLI with two GTX460's. You motherboard must support that though. What are your complete specs?
I have a GTX460, but it's broken, thats why I need a new one. Mobo: Asus M4A77T CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE GPU: Nvidia GeForce 460 GTX 1GB RAM: 4GB I don't think you need more info, right?
rma it if it's in warranty

So you always had goof framerate, but rectnely it started to go down? have you done any troubleshooting at al before deciding to buy a new card, which im pretty sure would not fix annything.

It's like it used to be when I start a game, and after 5-10 minutes all colors go weird and the game crashes, and a popup says Nvidia drivers stopped responding, or something like that.
Isn't the GTX560 Ti around that price? That's what I've got, pretty much maxes everything I throw at it, including Witcher 2

[QUOTE=Anthophobian;30120854]Overheating?[/QUOTE] This Might be an idea to take it apart and clean the dust out. I opened up my old card just before i got a new one, and discovered why it had been running at 107 degrees :ohdear:

Also this is probably overheating.
