I currently have a GTX 970 powering my bedroom computer, but the thing is I hardly ever use the thing for anything but watching movies through Kodi. So it seems to me I should buy something a bit easier on my monthly electric bill (which regularly exceeds $500). Finding cards with the best FPS is a simple task, but I'm pretty lost trying to find the most energy efficient options.
Can someone recommend a Nvidia card that uses significantly less electricity? Other important factors are the noise levels and cooling capabilities, since it is in my bedroom I'd like to be be as quiet and cool as possible. I was looking at a GTX 950, but maybe I should just use my i5-3570K's integrated graphics? I really could just use some all around advice on the situation.
Thanks.
