while others are a bit weaker

Or a 560Ti?

[smithrmark]

humm maybe should wait for the refresh

its seems like the gtx 560 vs the 560ti are very similar

Does you current GPU does all you want it to do ? If yes, then there is no hurry, If not well GTX 560ti or the 6950 are both good choices. Personelly, I rather buy a mid-end card and change it more often but that just me...

I tend to agree with what's already been stated. A GeForce 560 gtx/ti or Radeon 6950 1GB would allow you to max out pretty much everything (Metro 2033 excluded).

I was in a similar situation. After much research I went with the 570. It seems to be the best bang for your buck at that price point plus theres a $40 MIR right now.
