I have an AMD Radeon HD Sapphire 7970 3GB and was wondering how viable this was for the future or if an upgrade would be needed in the near future?
 
Solution
Depends on how you intend to game.

If you're sticking to 1080p then the 7970 will probably last you a couple more years, but you may have to turn down some graphical tweaks to get smooth gameplay.

If you're aiming for 1440p, then forget about it. You need a GTX 970/980 or R9 290X.
