Ask the Experts: I have $450 to spend on my PC, should I spend it all on a GPU or split it with a GPU and SSD?

By: (more) | Storage News | Posted: Oct 16, 2012 2:27 am

Our Ask the Experts section has a question, this time from Nate in the US who wants to know which if he should just upgrade his GPU to something like the GeForce GTX 670, or buy a mid-range GTX 660 Ti and an SSD.

 

TweakTown's Ask the Experts

 

Q: I am an avid PC gamer. I have approximately $450 to do an immediate upgrade. I currently have an old 8600gts and a standard 512GB 7200RPM HDD. I try, as much as my current card will let me, to game at 1920x1080. Should I go all out on the video card and get a nice GTX 670? Or should I split the cash up and get a GTX 660 Ti and a 240GB SSD (since there are outrageous deals just about every day on SSDs)?

 

A: You can view the answer to Nate's question right here.
