Hi from Australia Tomshardware,
About a year ago I built a PC under the guidance of these forums and now i think it might be time for a GPU upgrade?! I'm not entirely sure.
My Build - HERE
My current GPU is a Sapphire R9 280. it does pretty good compared to others but not the best.
My friend just got a 970 and used Minecraft on max settings (as a benchmark) and got over 1000FPS (so he says)and with my GPU I get (on max settings) 150 FPS. If i was to get a 970, with my build, would I achieve this with a 970?
I won't really be playing Minecraft, but a mix of games such as CS:GO, AC: Unity, Rust and Skyrim. Is a GTX 970 a smart option?
I will be buying from PC Case Gear or Scorptec so if you have the time please have a look at what these offer is GPU's arround the $500 mark in GPU's
Thanks in advance,
Callum
