Hey guys,I was looking to upgrade my r9 280 after I had to turn settings to low on AC black flag and dying light to even get a solid 40fps,I was thinking of getting a GTX 980,this one

http://www.amazon.co.uk/STRIX-GTX980-DC2OC-4GD5-Nvidia-Graphics-GDDR5-Express/dp/B00O11Z0H2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437729769&sr=8-1&keywords=gtx+980

This is the rest of my build,do I need to change anything to run this,such as the PSU?

CPU - i5-4460
CPU cooler - CM EVO 212
RAM - 8GB Corsair vengeance
PSU - Corsair CXM 600 Modular 80+ bronze
HDD - 1TB Western digital
Mobo - Gigabyte Z97P-D3
Case - Zalman z9 Plus
 

great choice on the gpu.
you can check the gtx 970 or a r9 390 . they are a lot less but perform the same(when oced)

btw i have a r9 270x and play ac blag flag at 40+ fps ultra
 


How the hell do you do that? I play at 1080p with all the settings on low to get 45-55.Although i am recording at 1080p
Anyway I dont like to OC things so I will still be getting a 980,but will the PSU be enough to handle it?
 


Alright thanks,that what i was hoping to hear :)
