What should I upgrade to?

[DrSlickDaddy]

So right now I'm currently running x2 Ati Radeon 5750's but when enabling crossfire I don't and FPS increase. I can run pretty much any game at the highest settings except for a few exceptions (Crysis 2, GTA IV with graphics enhancements). I was looking into a EVGA GeForce GTX 460 1024MB to replace my 2 current cards. Do you think that would give me a significant performance increase? If no then any other recommendations?

SPECS:
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3.2Ghz
x2 Ati Radeon 5750's
4GB DDR3 RAM
ASUS M4A87TD EVO MOBO
Xtreme Gear 800W PSU
Native Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Windows 7 64 bit

i'd say to throw in a little overclocking on both the gpu's and cpu, if it can max all but those then it shouldn't need to be upgraded and a overclock should either get it there or close enough to maxing them.

A GTX 460 will not stand up against 2 5750's. What you said is confusing though:

Are you saying you don't get a higher FPS when you use crossfire? If not, it doesn't sound like you are properly CFing. If that's the case that means you are running all your games on one card so if you can get the cross fire working properly you should have no issues.

Yes, I was saying CF doesn't increase FPS in games that don't run well. I'm not sure how you don't CF properly. What I did was attach the bridge between the 2 cards and enable CF in CCC
