I'd say sell and get a 570 and buy another monitor to match your Asus one, that would be cool, would be quite the upgrade

I'll keep an eye out for a good dual monitor deal here on th marketplace. I've been playing mafia 2 on my native res with everything maxed out and I still get awesome frames. Seems like my oced 460 is doing well so I think monitor makes the most sense.

You have a VERY nice overclock on your current GTX 460. If you SLI with another card at those clocks, you'll get faster performance then a single GTX 580. I say buy another to save money and get better performance.

Sell the 460 and buy a 580 and max every game out atm.

A 580 should max everything at that resolution while having smooth gameplay.

I say that's a bad idea because 1080p requires a heap of Vram for the majority of games out there. Adding another 460 would show gains of roughly 90-100% at his current resolution. I play 1680x1050 with a GTX 470, I've always used that resolution. Don't understand why everyone complains when they say that you need a 1080p monitor just for SLI. XD

Get a second 460. You'll see gains like crazy.
Just make sure it's the same brand and model if you want to have a better shot at getting the same clocks.
Asus is awesome. ^^
