Ok so I have a gtx 460, and I'm looking to upgrade to a new card. I have around 250$ USD to spend on it. Is it worth upgrading if I have a gtx 460, I mean it runs most games on high even bf3 and I can do ultra but it's around 30 fps. Would I really see much of a difference in games such as stalker and bf3?

Here are some of my specs:

AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 3.3GHz, 3.7GHz Turbo Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL

Rosewill RP600V2-S-SL 600W ATX12V v2.01 SLI Ready Power Supply


PNY RVCGGTX4601XXB GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
 
I would play the waiting game for right now. Nvidia should be releasing its next lineup in the near future.
 
Yeah, but I don't really have a need for a 500$ card. But I guess it would drop the prices of other cards.
 
Your best bet is sli. GTX 460s scale well. There is a deal I have been linking to on amazon for a superclocked one via evga (fav company for gpus).

Best deal I have seen at the moment.

Though prices will hopefully drop once the new cards are released.
 
I did have sli 460's on my old board but one died.. And my new board has two spots but it doesn't look like it will fit another 460
