i7-860 2.8Ghz and GTX 670 4Gb SLI update

[MaxDarklighter]

So I'd like to update but don't know what to update next.

I do my research and I know that my CPU is not bottlenecking my GPUs.

So if I'll chouse to update GPU the only way is go for 970 but only SLI because single 970 still not enough to beat 670 SLI.

I don't want to buy 980 because of lower "performance per dollar" value in comparison with 970.

So my quastion is am I need to update CPU for 970 SLI or it'll be enough if I'll OC my CPU to let's say 3.2Ghz?

Don't upgrade, what you have is already great. I would only go 980 SLI as an upgrade.

OC that hoe. It will be enough for now. Wait for next generation 390X Crossfire

Yes guys that's enough for 30+ FPS in FullHD for most modern titles.

Reason why I'd like to update is my Surround setup of 1080x3 and upcoming GTA 5 and Witcher 3 which I'd like to play in 30+ FPS in ultrahigh.

So if I'll go for update, what is my priority?

I would only get the GTX 980, the 970 only has 3.5Gb VRAM and may not be good for texture packs for instance on multiple monitors. 970 SLI is not a worthy enough upgrade, 980 SLI is but of course costs a ton. You really should wait, really should for some pretty soon upcoming cards from AMD and Nvidia.

Thank you guys for quick respond!
I'll wait for next gen cards.

But am I really need to update CPU/MOBO? Is i7-860 really bottlenecking 670SLI? Even if OC to 3.2?

if you can OC, then no need to update. Please select the best answer if I helped you tonight. Thanks!
