Should I go with the 560 Ti?

I'm thinking about running to best buy to see if they have a 560 Ti so i can upgrade my pc for BF3. I currently have a Phenom quad 3.0ghz, 4gb ram, and hd4850. Would i see a big performance increase?

600w psu and a pci ex x16 will work with it as well? Just being cautious.

Also can it handle the 1080p resolution?

I paid like an extra 50 on it (299 after tax). Eh.. Beats the wait i suppose.

This. you lost out a lot

Well i think the 560 ti will do for know. Now that i think about it, it was outragiously foolish of me. I've always bought from newegg cause retailers are overpriced. Is there anyway i can get my PC to recognize the card? The installation disk wont read.

Could you not go online and download drivers from Nvidia?

Restocking fee is like 15% I think, that would be throwing out $45 if he returned it. Not sure if it's worth it unless he could find a good 570 for just $300, otherwise he would pretty much be buying a 570 for $400 if including the restocking fee at Best Buy.

i returned my GPU i got from Best Buy and they didnt charge me a thing. back then i paid $299.99 plus tax for a HD 5770 and i notice that on newegg was WAY cheaper he can go back and return it.

If they try to charge, just talk to the manager.

If your lucky and live close to the newegg warehouse you can drive there instead. At least thats what I do!

I work at best buy we can return parts as long as they're not damaged and within the return policy. Pci and Pci-e cards are the only parts best buy sells in store.
