The gtx 960 is just a slight edge better than the 7870. Even if you could afford the gtx 960, it would be a poor waste of money, since the gain would be minimal. Either save up for a gtx 970/r9 390 or wait for pascal is my opinion.

Well the performance increase with a gtx 960 would be 10-15% at best. With the GTX 970 it should be around 40% but that depends on your other components as well.
If you're looking for a decent performance upgrade, £100.00 might not get you very far. A GTX 960 is only slightly faster than a 7870, meaning you're better off getting a GTX 970 or even a R9 290/390.
Please read up before you post guys, 960 isn't worth the upgrade and the 970 is out of my price range. So I'm asking how much more balls I'd get out of crossfire.
Hmmm screw that then, thanks Rukeith. What about older cards that are a decent chunk better than mine? Not really that bothered about having the latest. And they probably fall somewhere within my price range.
