Think of spending 2-$300 on a new GPU and looking to get some possible Overclocking advice for my PC.
Knowing nothing about the new GPU's these days, i need some advice, also some advice on how else i should improve my PC for MWO perfromance.
Currenty, i run on medium with a FPS of around 55 at max, dropping to low 30's during high gameplay (explosions, dropsips etc.)
My system is :
i2500k with Corsair H100i cooler
Geforce 560 Ti 2gb
8Gb DDr3 1600 Ram
240gb SSD
Thinking of a 760 GTX GPU, would that suit my system and get the game running decent on high? Or should i look into another card that will benefit my system better?
Also, should i overclock the CPU, as i do have sufficient cooling to do so, just never really needed the extra juice?
Advice appreciated, thanks guys.

A GTX760 would be about 1.5 560Tis so.....I would reccomend a 100% performance increase.......If you were to buy a GPU.
i went from GTX460 1gb to GTX760 2gb (Like SLI) but single power effective upgrade.

I live in Canada, The gound is frozen My 8350 is @ 5.0ghz.......but you sir in the Beautiful land down under probably dont have the OC headroom as we do in the more northern places......but I am sure that H100 will do just fine.

The CPU OC should yield a little bit nicer experience, I previously ran a 2600K at 4.4GhZ and was pretty happy with it.

But the 30 FPS are stable and rarly go under it. I even can shadowplay with 30 FPS.
Looks like i need to replace some other old parts too...
Motherboard: ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO/U3S6 (only have pci-e 2.0 not 3.0 that the GTX 970 use)
Cpu: AMD Phenom II X4 955 125W (C3) Black Edition, 4x 3.20GHz (overclocked to 3.5)
old Sata Harddrive
only 8 GB DDR3 RAM (some noname not realy good ones)
Such a nice GPU and all other games running ultrasmooth but Mwo stuck on 30 FPS ... *sadface*
