Hey guy been 2 years since i built my rig and now its time to upgrade the GPU.
When i started i made the mistake of getting an entry level graphics card thinking if it wasnt enough i would just SLI them, after playing on one and reading many reviews i'm kicking myself in the arse for not spending more. Simply put the 760 doesnt perform well enough to make me happy and i'm not dealing with SLI issues if i dont have to.
That being said I'm looking at a few cards over a large price range to understand the full capabilities and capacities of my needs.
System Specs:
2 x 27" BenQ 1080p 60hz
4770k turbo mode LQ Cooled
Z87 Sabertooth
16 gb 1866
950w Corsair PSU
5 x 240 gb SSD
Asus Strix 760 2gb
Current Game loadout:
Witcher 3
Fallout 4
Anno 2070
Supreme Commander 2
The cards im thinking about getting are:
780TI - $240 used local (3hours 1 way)
970-$350-400 used local
980-$550-600 used local
980ti-$900-1100 new (no used local)
Since i've been so unhappy with my old purchase i want to be sure i make the right choice this time!
I'm hoping someone has been through this 1st world problem before and might have some insight.
thanks for your time everyone and Merry Christmas!!
