Hey.

Upgrading my pc within the next month or so.

I know the ins and outs on what hardware i want to get etc.

Just wanted some other users opinions on the GTX260+ (216). As in how much longer do you think it'll be able to handle games happily etc.

Of course it comes down to the rest of the system aswell. Am going to get a AMD 965 Black Edition 3.4GHZ, 4GB DDR 3, Windows 7 etc.

But mainly asking on a GPU front what people think about that card and how much legs it still has on it.

Cheers.

i have the same card and i love it.

i havent played new games as such as metro 2033 but i dont think it can run it to very high settings.

and im able to play crysis at ultra settings with 30 fps(but not enthusiast which is the highest)

but for the most part i say this card as some years to go on it.

just dont expect those years to spoon feed you:P

I got a MSI TwinFrozr 260 GTX and I love it. Best card I ever had, definitely. Quiet, fast, and cool.

What does that have to do with anything?

LOL Also, just a heads up, mods on here would see that as trolling. Just a heads up.

Edit: I m talking about your last sentence.
