I got my evga gtx 260 216 core 55nm back in February so I still got roughly 30+ days for a step up. I am currently running dual 22 inch widescreen monitor with 1680 x 1050 resolution with core 2 duo E6400 OCed to 3.2ghz. From what I read, the GTX 275 would provide me roughly 15-20% proformance increase iof I am reading ti correctly
According to EVGA, 1792 MB step up would cost me 70 + shipping to upgrade and roughly around 20 dollar to upgrade to the 896 version. Is it worth it so will the 275 be too powerful for 22 inch?
Another thing, think my Enermax 500 watt can handle the 275? It could handle my 260 no problem but Isince 275 would require a bit more power so I got a little worry.. Also, anyone now what is Best Buy GPU return policy? I sold me 8800GT when I got my 260 so I would need a backup card while the step up is in progress. Should I just go to best buy and pick up a cheap card and then return it when the step up return? What is the best mail carrier to ship a card back to evga for stepup?
