I'm looking to upgrade my 650 Ti to something better here in a couple weeks.
I was looking into a 970 but all I've seen is negative reviews about it.
I'm not trying to spend more than 350-400 on this.
Also I usually run 2-3 Monitors.
Opinions?

My current setup is:
AMD FX 8320
8GB Ram
MSI 970A-G46 Mobo
620 Bronze PSU
212 Evo Cooler

970 or bust

or 290x

Regardless of whatever retards are saying about the 970, it still performs fantastically for the price.

That's what I figured. I just wanted to be 100% sure.
Best buy has it in stock, so that will save me time and money. :)

I work at Geek Squad. I get a big discount on most things.
And why a stock cooler? My 212 works perfectly. My computer sits at 30c always.
