I have a "gaming rig" which in 2009 seemed awesome, but of course now it's feeling a little behind-the-curve. I currently have a GTX 285 which surprisingly seems OK at my 1920x1200 resolution in many somewhat recent games (Skyrim, Mass Effect 2, Starcraft 2), but I would like to stay a constant 60 fps with those games and be prepared for the games coming up in the next 3-5 years.
Is the GTX 680 what I've been waiting for? I appreciate that it runs fairly cool and quiet, but I'm not sure if I should hold out for "big kepler" considering I don't upgrade often. Looking at Anandtech Bench and other comparisons, the 680 of course is a pretty big leap forward (although so many generations ahead I expected more?) - but is it enough for the next few years? Maybe it is, considering my GTX 285 is holding up pretty well, but I may be missing something...
Thanks for any input you all have!
