Ok so my gpu just went bad.i got sod and reinstalled windows. And every time I install drivers from CD for my gpu,crash and won't go back to desk top. Monitor is plugged into video card.

So, I have a 570. Do i get 760 or 960? Are both of these an upgrade from my 570? All I play is Total War series and Sim city

Got the 570 in Jan of 2011. So I'm guessing its at its life span

Hi Joel....  The 760 and 960 are very close in performance and are both about 50% better in gaming.   The 760 is probably cheaper but the 960 is a newer card.   I'd get the newer card with added features.  .

The crashing with your 570......  I would go into Device Manager,, find your gtx 570, right click, Uninstall and then reboot and let Windows find a driver for it.  You might see a blank screen, etc at first but just let it finish.   If it works then try a different driver than what you have from GeForce.com.   .   Drivers can cause all kinds of issues.  

Hope this helps and good luck. Big%20Smile
