Yeah, time to upgrade. I'm using the "budget" Geforce 430, which supposedly "underperforms" compared to your's, but that's a DAMNED LIE! This thing is a big upgrade over what I had and I can run games like Dragonage II with max stats with only a little slow down like what GR mentioned. Granted, I'll be upgrading fairly soon. That 430 was only $60 so I got it to carry me through until I could afford something better, which is now.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
