If you have 250-350 to spend on a graphics card and don't care about saving any of it, go for the 970.

is that the build you have already? or you have yet to purchase? because it looks more like a video editing rig...

get the 960 like shaft said. even with that it's extreme over kill for your needs.

960 is overkill, way overkill. 970 would just be stupid.

Yea most of those parts I either got super cheap and near free.
ill wait a couple weeks for the 960.
As long as I can run Wow on HQ ill be fine. Probally wont game anything hardcore on there. Im more of a console player in that sense.

with a 960 you'll be able to run crysis 3 on ultra, maybe 2x AA. hell my 660 runs ultra 2x AA at 1080p. you'll be more then fine for WoW.

with that in mind, a 960 would be better because OC'd will be a 970. he plays WoW dude, and even on a 960 he can play any game at desirable settings. he's not gonna be running unigine valley benchmarks and sit in CHD all day.
