So my 'rich' friend always keeps up to date with his gaming needs and he wants to replace his not so old MSI Gaming Edition GTX 760 4GB card. Now he will probably go along the lines of the GTX 970. He has now offered me his 760 for about half the price that the card is worth new. Is it worthwhile for me to buy the card off of him?
My PSU will need to be upgraded seen as I only have a 450W. Would a better option be for me to wait for the 900 series Low End/Mid Range cards to get launched? As they are extremely power effiecient. Im not looking at maxing games at anything higher than 1080p. Thats why I think the 760 is a bit of a waste, but I would like to mod Skyrim with texture mods which Ive seen his card can handle.
Would you recommend me to upgrade my PSU and buy his 760 card from him? Or to rather get a card more styled for my gaming purposes such as the 950ti (if there is one launching next month) which is power efficient and also can play games at Medium/High settings at 1080p if its anything like the 750ti.
Many Thanks.
