Hell no, even if he had the money for it.

If you want to be futureproof, get a nice $110 LGA 1155 board and 3570k/2500k. Get a nice CPU cooler to go with it. Bump the GPU down to a 7770, 6870 or 7850 to stay within budget. Personal preference, but I like Antec and Corsair PSUs.

Well I might edit videos in the future, and extra FPS is always good?

Assuming he doesn't already have a gaming rig (no monitor, no reusable HDD) any upgrade would be huge, and a 660ti can run any game today max settings with 30+ fps. It's not worth paying 30% more on a card to maybe get a 10-15% performance increase.

Isn't 660 ti almost as good? Kinda.

You *might* edit videos *in the future*. Chances are even if you do you wouldn't be rendering hours of 1080p footage edited in After Effects. Is it worth one hundred more of your hard earned dollars for something you might do a little in the future to be a little bit faster? (a mouthful, I know.)

Exactly my point. Even if you play at 720p on medium-high settings with 4x AA you'll still be blown away compared to what you're used to.

You'll get 7 more FPS in Metro going from a $300 card to a $400 card. Not worth it if you're trying to stay tight to your budget.

Go for a 660ti or lower. I'm sure you won't be constantly playing shit like Battlefield 3. Put the settings on medium and you'll get 80 fps. Actually no, fuck that and play with VSYNC
Well optimised source maps will give you 299 fps constantly. Don't waste so much money
You will never need the power of a top of the line card. When the next set comes out, you will be disappointed.

I have the GeForce GTX 60 Ti and I'm perfectly happy with it. BF3 runs perfect
