Would you buy gpu or other parts

[MDXX]

1st. Debating between buying a 970 now, or maybe getting the parts to sli them sometime next year if dx12 becomes more available. I dont need a 970 right now. So i was thinking of other parts. Would like a new case and psu

A good case and PSU are great backbones for system upgrades. If you don't really NEED the 970 at the moment they would be better choices in terms of upgrade progression.

i agree and disagree. a new psu is extremely important but the case couldn't mean less unless its air tight or dosnt fit the components. out of my last two builds one was build in a ancient Pentium 2 case that i tore apart and put fans in and the other is a old dell dimensions case that has terrible airflow. the pc's both run amazing. back too the post what other hardware is in your computer?

What i have in my sig is what i have currently. Im thinking of a new PSU right now. Get rid of the cx600m. What corsair series is good for sli?

Look for these Corsair models in 750w for SLI GPU support:

AX / AXi series, HXi, RMi

All use either Seasonic, Flextronic, or Channel Well components and are tier 1 PSUs.

Think i may just stick with my 960 and just sli that

Very solid choice of PSU, that will run any GTX card up to 970's in SLI with no issue whatsoever.

It will also be a very strong future investment if you eventually want to upgrade to a GTX 980ti or one of the Pascal line GPU's coming out next year.

So are these new GPU's next year energy efficient? Or they going to be power hungry?

The press releases on the Pascal line have all noted it as an energy efficient model, but we can't say for sure until the cards are released. That said, the PSU you linked will certainly be able to handle any single GPU with no issues.
