Re: Suggestions - New Graphics Card
Got an EVGA GTX 670 FTW edition (it comes overclocked and overclocks more easily), and consider it one of the best bangs for the buck I have ever done on a pc upgrade......there's a fairly hefty price increase going to the 680 not sure it is that much in improved performance. Just my 2 cents.

Re: Suggestions - New Graphics Card
If you do insist that you want a new graphics card wait until TS2014 comes out and see how your system you have now runs with the old one. Personally I think it will run just ok.

Intel i5-2500K 3.3GHz Quad Core, Asus P8Z 68-V LE MB, Asus GTX 1060 Strix 6GB Gaming graphics card, Windows 10 Home 64 bit, 16gb Corsair Vengeance DDR3 ram, Viewsonic VX2452mh LED 1080P HD Monitor. Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HD, Seagate Firecuda 2 TB HD,

Bump
I am running a Radeon 8750 OC which is performance wise the same as the 7870. Still, On the GEML between London and Shemfield I get less then 25 fps. That is with FXAA +1 x2 SSAA, Anosotropic x8, scenery at High, view distance at high and shadows OFF.
It looks nice, but I'm sure it can look much better.
Any thoughts on a better GPU for a decent price?
