GPU Question

Hello everyone!
So lets just get straight to the point, I have a
EVGA GTX 750 1GB FTW w/ACX Cooling and was wondering if a
EVGA GTX 960 2GB w/ACX2.0+ (SuperSC Edition) is a good leap of improvement to get?
So is the
960 2GB card worth buying to replace the
750 1GB card? And if so would i be able to keep the old card in to run one monitor on it?

Hi and thank you for asking here over the forum ^_^.
Yes, GTX 960 will let you play new games on 1080 medium with no problems at 60 fps, and normal minimum req games at high or even ultra.
You will not need the 750 anymore in your system because the 960 can display on multi-monitors easily. From what I can see this EVGA can have a 3 way monitor setup via Display Ports so don't you worry about that.
I recomend keeping your 750 in case the 960 will ever break ( I doubt that ), and I hope you will enjoy your new video card

Thanks for the input! On gpuboss thats not my GPU I have the FTW edition with ACX Cooling, but I get the idea. I have been recently been reviewing benchmarks after this post and it appears that this card can pretty much run most games at max setting with being around 50 - 70 FPS (in most cases) the only thing that it is really lacking is the 4GB VRAM but I think 2GB will do. Remember this is SSC Edition (Super Super Clocked) I'm actually now building an entirely new system and keeping my old hardware in my computer and letting my brother "rent" it, while i create a new system and this GTX960 will do the job i think. Thanks again for the input! If you or anyone else has any input that would be great, but yeah thanks again.

I strongly recomend to buy the 4GB edition, some games do utilize the GB's, like GTA5, Witcher and many more, I have nothing else to say =), just to enjoy your time in this awesome community

Im not sure if you have bought the card yet, but nivida announced the GTX 1060, they will be about 250 usd. From the early reports they quite good for the price.
