I'm considering looking at an upgrade for my current video card which is an ati 4850 512mb.
My rig is a few years old, Core 2 Duo E7200 Wolfdale, gygabyte GA-EP43-DS3L, 4 gigs of OCZ PC 800 ddr2 ram, PSU is Corsair VX 450. I'm running windos 7 pro x64.
Literally the only game I play is WoW. In high clutter content (cities, 25 man raids) on mid settings I get some choppy playback. I'm currently running at 1680x1050 and I have no plans for a new monitor.
I'm wondering what I should be looking at. It looks like something like a GTS 250 would give me a significant upgrade for a modest investment.
Any recommendations for what would be a solid card based on my rig and habits. I'd like to get back up to buttery smooth 60 fps on my 6 year old game on a 3 year old rig.
