hi to all Pg members..
i need sugggestion about my GPu upgrade and power Consumption..my current gaming system is as following
i7 920 @ 3.8 Ghz
12 GB DDR3 1600Mhz Ram
Zotac GTX 580 3GB
TX 750 Watt
Raven RV02 Casing..

till now my system can play almost all games at max setting.but my main concern is the power consumption and heat it goes to 73C when gaming & 40C idle. how much difference will i see if i upgrade to a GTX 760 power consumption and performance wise.or should i wait and upgrade to a higher level card after few months. cant go at AMD as i use the system for editing as well so Cuda Cores Required..and many online forms say 5XX generation is better then 6XX as they r crippled bandwidth wise. But 7XX Generation is back on track.
so suggest weather continue using the same card and upgrade latter or upgrade now.

as i said your system is perfectly fine and you can overclock your pro more to gain more FPSs in Games.
Yes though of taking it to 4---4.2Ghz if possible but with hipper 212evo this is the beat i could do. Stress test 3 hours and the temps were 74 to 78C being the hottest core..( and i don't use A/C in my Room).

My only point was which i couldn't figure out was how much electric bill will i save if i shift to gtx 760.will it be huge or minor

I am Also Buying A gtx 760 4gb with free watch dogs lol anyways it will reduce electricity bill marginally.
Thats what on my mind.. Get it imported from newegg.com its 249.99$ with watchdog MSI Gtx760 4gb. It won't cost u more than 31K as galaxy is selling about 40k.
