I need a new graphics card

Hey Guys

Sadly I lost my graphic card, again :(

So now im looking for a new one, abit better than what I had, I used the GTX 660 2gb model from Gigabyte, with a windforce coller x2... It was actually quite good for 5 boxing, but, now Im buying one, that is gonna be enough for WoD also, so is this gonna be good enough?

I know we dont know how much additional power we need for WoD, but I assume its actually gonna be less because of the spell details are being specifik for the player himself, and they will be less visual for anyone else. Now we do get more polygons and such on the models, but I dont really think thats gonna impact too much. Not compared to spell details. So what do you think? Should I just buy it ? :)

Thx for ur help

BTW: Don't recommend me any AMD cards, I don't want them, sorry :).

Lost ...? You should really keep these GPUs on a leash of some sort.

Blizzard really has some low minimum requirements to run World of Warcraft and I know they'd like to keep it that way. This allows them to reach such a wide audience of players and I can't imagine they're going to be changing the requirements by all that much in WoD -- Probably only to run Ultra settings. The new models are going to require more power to run, but there's an option to turn off the new models and use the old ones we have today.

The GTX 770 is a good GPU and I'm sure you'll be happy with it.
