1263895 2012-03-09 08:54:00 Probably this one www.ascent.co.nz all the other makes are $50 or more dearer. My 8800GTS was a Leadtek. All my previous cards have been Leadtek and have never had any prolems with them.
Thanks for the input guys.

1263896 2012-03-09 09:51:00 Possibly even consider one of amd's new 7770's. Cheaper than a 560ti probably not as good but better than your old gpu. According to some reviews the 7770 is better than a gts8800 dual sli configuration at around 1/4 of the price. And if you ever wonna xfire these things scale quite well. Slankydudl (16687)

1263898 2012-03-09 19:56:00 The GTX560Ti is a great choice, I had a GTX460 until quite recently which ran pretty much everything and the 560Ti is quite a bit quicker. I probably should have got one myself, but I shot a bit higher.
I also got www.pbtech.co.nz as a cheap upgrade for my second system, which only has a basic 400W CM PSU and I'm fairly impressed with it for a cheap card.

1263901 2012-03-11 00:21:00 I second the 7770 because I'm an AMD fanboy when it comes to graphics, and I've been able to throw quite alot at my 5770 and 5470 and not have them balk. (Well, the 5470 can't do much but hey it's a budget mobile gpu) 8ftmetalhaed (14526)
1263902 2012-03-11 00:33:00 The 7770 is about as good as the 460gtx from memory. My :2cents: icow (15313)
1263903 2012-03-11 02:15:00 and plus the 7770 uses practically no power. Slankydudl (16687)
1263904 2012-03-11 02:22:00 and plus the 7770 uses practically no power.Neither does the 8800GTS anymore ... :lol: fred_fish (15241)
