Hi,
I'm not sure if this upgrade would be worth it for 1080p gaming.
The 7970 is really loud when gaming. I read some reviews for the Asus GTX 970. It is apparently one of the quietest cards going right now.
I also want to hit 60FPS, which I think this card might do for most games out now at 1080p.
My 7970 can do 60 for some new games, but mostly around 40-50 with very high settings. Some games it drops low, like in Far Cry 3 during some scenes.
Anyway, I'm just wondering if this is a decent upgrade. I'd sell my 7970 for around 150 (seems to be the going rate) and put that towards the new card.
