It's not a bad card though, but I would suggest at least getting the gtx 560.
As am i, but i'll have to upgrade my PSU aswell.
If you have at least a 600-650W PSU, you really shouldn't have to upgrade, that is if you want a GTX 680. The GTX 560 does not draw that much power either, it really all depends on the number of pin connector's on the card.
Such as the PCI-E slot takes 75 W
A 6 pin takes about 75W
A 4 pin takes about 50W? (Not all too positive on that)
Im running a GTX 560 Ti 448 Core 1.25GB card currently. Getting on max settings on Metro 2033 with bout 40-50 FPS steady. That being one of the more demanding games, it stands fairly close to the GTX 570. Other than that, I run almost all my games on Max settings with no problems. On all source mods, I hit the cap of 300 FPS and just stay there with slight variation from 298-300.
