2. Main board: Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3.
3. 500W PSU.
4. RAM: 6GB DDR2 ram.
5. OS: Win7 64.

Really nice question because this question is related to my problem also. I am so eager to share about my new graphics card. Sharing makes me happier. At the right time you ask this question because recently I replace my Nvidia GTX 560 Ti with Nvidia GeForce 9400GT. My motherboard contains 775 socket and GTX 560 easily fitted in 775 sockets. I’m also scaring about this problem that should GTX 560 will support 775 sockets. You are saying that you usually like to play newly launched games. But I tell you that still you will get problem while playing these games after replacing this graphics board.

Hi friends I’m also using this Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512 and till yet I never get any problem while using this graphics card. But our nature is always going with the modern world. So that’s why I upgrade my graphics card by replacing Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512 with Nvidia GTX 560 Ti. Really this graphics makes a good experience while playing heavy games. You said that you are using 4 GB RAM and I’m running only 2GB RAM for this heavy games. Then also it’s doesn’t cause any problem in 2GB RAM.

I’m also using 8800 GTS which providing 512 MB graphics memory. And it is not enough for me so recently I upgraded my graphics card with GTX 560 Ti. This graphics card really makes nice experience while playing heavy games on my desktop. I can’t say about that GTX 560 Ti graphics card will support your motherboard. I wish that it will support your motherboard, because after upgrading you will be able to play high resolution games. It would be best choice if you go with this graphics card and I don’t think that after upgrading this you will go again for upgrading sooner.

GTX 560 Ti is requires less power supply. And Gigabyte motherboard with socket 775 supports this graphics card. If you are worry about price of this graphics card then I posting and some features of this graphics card. He GeForce GTX 560 Ti is composed to transport the fit encounter in DirectX 11 diversions. The 8 Polymorph Engines I specified above are committed explicitly for equipment tessellation – a bottom highlight in DirectX 11. The 8 Polymorph Engines take into account snappier geometry handling which make DirectX 11 amusements looks shocking. DirectX 11 recreations for example Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 looks and performs terrific on a PC with a GTX 560 Ti. Explicitly, the environment looks more reasonable owed to the tessellation proficiencies in the GPU with DirectX 11. The cost (Suggested Retail Price) for the GeForce GTX 560 Ti should be $249. What's stupendous regarding this is that its in line with what the GeForce 8800 GT started with in terms of cost (it started in the $199-$249 extend) in 2007. The $249 cost is for the standard GTX 560 Ti with the stock 822MHz ticker. Notwithstanding, a few NVIDIA associates will be dispatching overclocked forms of the GTX 560 Ti running with up to 1 GHz clocks that will run a touch higher in cost at around $269.99.

You have chosen correct graphics card for upgrading. I’m also planning for upgrading and I’m also thinking for this graphics card only. The GeForce GTX 560 Ti is an incredible upgrade from the GeForce 8800 GT. The GTX 560 Ti shows graphics clock speed up to 822MHz. In general, the GTX 560 Ti shows a three times performance increase over the GeForce 8800 GT. The GeForce 8800 GT had 512MB of GDDR3 memory, while the GTX 560 Ti has 1GB of GDDR5. Now you can think that what an experience we get during playing high resolution games. The GTX 560 Ti is designed along the same lines as the GTX 570/580 where on a transistor level changes have been made to make it more efficient with power consumption.
