Hello All,

I have a Quad Core 6600 Overclocked 1mhz and a 8800gt way over clocked is there a card out there that would be a nice upgrade for me for under $160??

Would there be much of a change wiht the 5770 over the 8800gt?
10 years on a tech forum and you dont know how to look up reviews of a video card? yes the 5770 would be noticeably faster in most games but I personally dont think of it has a huge upgrade. so you have a Q6600 at 3.0 but what does the rest of your system look like including psu, ram, and res you want to pay at? you might want to save up a bit more because something like a 5850 might be a better choice.
