Selling my GTX 970

[LoufasGR]

Hello everyone.I own a G1 Gaming and I was wandering will it be worth to sell it and get a new 3xx series from AMD?(Propably 390 cause budget for 390x is too low).I have also 750cs corsair and i5 4670k.

Mostly for 1080p gaming.

No it's not..

Well,depend on your resolution, but mostly that's actually a downgrade..

R9 390 is a very good card. But GTX 970 would be enough for you if you are playing in a regular single display monitor. But that PSU of yours seems a little bit unsuitable for a good gaming build. Corsair CS series PSUs are known to have low quality capacitors which tend to fail at heavy usage. I would say keep your GPU, change the PSU to a better quality one from Seasonic, XFX, EVGA or Antec.

Not an upgrade more like a side/down grade being just a renamed R9 290 series card where the 290X was about equal to the 970!

R9 390 and R9 390x are not really an upgrade to your GTX970.
I would not call it a downgrade either.

Sell your GTX970 to get either GTX980Ti or Fury X or simply get a second GTX970.

970SLI\980ti\Fury X would be the only things I would consider if I wanted to sell my 970. But honestly do you really need more @1080p?

Would it be worth to get a 290x Matrix Platinum?

Not really being the same level card! http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/R9_390X_Gaming/30.html

290x vs 970 is really close, more based on if you want AMD\NVIDIA IMO. Since you already have the 970 I would just save yourself the hassle and stick with it. Especially @1080p
