    Personally I'd go for a new Graphics Card, but both need to be upgraded.

    How about rather then upgrading grab a 2nd 650 TI? would that be more worth it. $100 rather then $200-$300 for a new card? idk if i would get better GPU power out of it tho.

    Not sure if SLing a low end card would do much.
    And you have to make sure you have enough power for another one.
