Recommendations for new GPU

[criticalcondition]

Hey everyone,

Looking for recommendations to replace my GTX 570HD that just died a few days. I had it for 3.5 years, but can't use the warranty since I never had it registered. So, my only option now is to a buy a new card. Current specs are:

Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570k
PSU: Corsair HX850 Gold

I'm looking to spend at most $400 now.

Thanks in advance.

I'd go with this:

MSI GeForce GTX 970 4GB Twin Frozr V (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-gtx970gaming4g) $328.99

Also (edited note): http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvr939xwf28gd that card is more expensive and has less performance, less core speed...

The 390x outperforms the 970 aeko.

The 970 is more on par more with the 390 which beats the 970 stock very marginal in fps (2-4) differences in majority of games and is cheaper in most cases , the 390x is even better , i'd personally go with the 390x for more raw power if your budget allows and power consumption isn't a issue but then the 970 has got more head room for Overclocking each to their own anyways GL.
