You have a decent computer, especially at that resolution for gaming! Why are you looking to upgrade? Any particular games limited by the GTX 470?
I dont seem to be limited by any current games i.e Skyrim but wondered if that may change in the near future. Thanks for the speedy reply, on a side note I have beem looking around the forum and some of the modding that you guys have done is amazing.
thanks for the speedy reply, I do not have any problems with any games at the moment I just want to make sure that I do not have any problems in the near future. Would there not be any noticeable improvement by upgrading or am I better off waiting for a while? if I am better off upgrading what would you suggest?
