So i have a gtx 970 in my rig along with a i5-4430 running on a cx600m (not the best ik).
I also have a r9 390 sitting in my closet. I tried using the r9 390 but i cant play games without it crashing after a few seconds, i tried a fresh install of windows to make sure there were no conflicting drivers but it didn't remedy anything. I rma'd the card twice now as well. I'm starting to suspect the psu isn't enough although i was told by countless sources it was. My question here: i plan on upgrading my pc summer-fall 2016 should i keep the 970 in my rig and just sell the r9 390 or just leave the card in the closet waiting for well who knows what. I wasn't happy with the temps coming off the r9 390 just at idle either.I play on a 1080 60hz monitor with a secondary that i use for non-gaming instances. The 970 is performing great in all my favorite games: skyrim, gta v Witcher 3 ect. While my r9 390 was showing gtx 960 like performance. If i would sell it i would put it up for about $300 usd. Opinions?
