So i have a 560 2gb and its fine and all kind of loud idk maybe i need to clean it but my question is what would be a decent upgrade for under $175?

i play alot of pc games from fps to strategy

i was looking at the cards below but are they even worth it?

or should i clean my card out on overclock it? maybe i am itching to spend $$

Used 580 or 670 if you can find one. definitely not a new card, way more bang for the buck used.
 
GTX660 is if you find one for sale, since its oss at newegg, for the galaxy one. i have the galaxy GTX660 GC 2gb card, nice and quiet.

another option would be to look at the GTX750 Ti's. i think either one of these would be the way to go.

the latter card is $20 more and maybe worth it if you dont want to mess with ocing the card in software. a new card imo is worth it, esp if your gaming at 1080 or there abouts. i say get a new one and sell that 560 to help off set the cost.

i had a 460 that was dieing and i went to the 560 but i kind had some extra money and wanted a better card
