Hey guys, new to the forums, looking for some help with a graphics card.

I will be playing mmo's exclusively especially RIFT. I would like to run the game on the highest settings possible and still get playable frame rates in large raids(20 mans).

I am trying to decide between the GTX570 factory OC and the GTX560 ti Factory OC. I will have an i5 2500k as the cpu. I understand that most mmos are cpu intensive and this is where I am having difficulties deciding. If I overclock my i5 2500k will the 560 ti be enough to run on "ultra" settings or would I benefit from the 570 a little more?

Any advice would be appreciated.

If you play only MMo's then oc your 2500k as high as you can, and get the 560 ti its more then enough. no point wasting extra $$$ for the 570 (my personal opinion).

Iplay Lineage2 and at the market place (Giran town) my fps crawls to the 10-15fps when there is 30+ character on screen and my 2500k is at 4.5Ghz.
