Hey guys here is my current build

FX-8350
8 gb ram
Gigabyte MB 990fxa-UD3
MSI GTX 660


So i was wondering should i purchase another 660 and use SLI or just upgrade to another card in the $300 range and give my brother my current 660 so he can start building his pc ?
Any feedback is welcome.
 
What case and PSU do you have?
Is your FX-8350 overclocked?
What games are you playing?
What's the max resolution of your monitors?

I'm happy to answer any other questions.
I was thinking about getting this card and i could also sell the games to offset some of the cost.

The GTX 770 is only 30% faster than your current card. Up to you if 30% more performance is worth $300. But if your brother is going to build a PC for sure, then yeah, give him your GTX 660.

However, for the current games you've mentioned so far, your GTX 660 should suffice for now. For the future games, I would wait for those games to come out first to see their hardware requirements.
 
Ok makes sense well my mom is giving me $150 towards the new card so i'm only paying about $200
