Looking for good GPU to pair with fx 6300

[This username is not availible]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a good graphics card that will go well with my fx 6300 (not overclocked)

I'd like them to be well balanced so maximum performance without bottlenecking the cpu,

I've heard that the gtx 960, the r9 380x, and the r9 280x are good choices, but the 280x seems a bit power hungry, and its a few years old already.

I've also seen quite a few youtube videos showing of the 960+fx 6300 combination.

I'm open to other suggestions.

Thanks for any help

This is a good price of a 960 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487091&cm_re=GTX_960-_-14-487-091-_-Product

The new AMD 470 may also be good but it's not out for sale yet, at least not on Newegg.

Thanks for the reply, is there any specific version of the 960 you would recommend??

The one I linked is quite a bit cheaper than the others, speeds won't be that much different between the different versions.
