Is the GTX 560 good?

Hello Everyone,

Firstly sorry for making so many threads lately, just trying to get my computer right!

Now, I'm thinking of buying a Gigabyte GTX 560 graphics card off a guy at school for $100 (Australian dollars, about the same as US). Is that a good price? He says he's hardly used it and it's in very good condition.

Now about the card itself, what sort of settings while it be able to play CoD, Battlefield, Minecraft, Skyrim on? Just to get an idea of how good it is.

Do you recommend buying a different card for not too much more?

Thanks
 
I could play BF3 on high/ultra(mixed settings) when I had one, and Skyrim on highest settings. Screen size, resolution, and CPU also come into play here.

For that price, it's well worth getting, but also make sure you have a power supply that can handle it as well.

The 600W PSU in my signature, that should handle it right?
 
Yeah it's OK, not the most powerful of cards but for the money it's a good deal. The Radeon HD 6870 is faster.
