Depends on what games you play.


/e Because you're getting an i7, I would get the best vid card you can afford.

this doesn't really answer my question

i don't have to stream everything in "ultra" mode lol idk... i think 970 will suffice but need other opinions

i can get the 980 if it's 100% worth it

970 would yield better price:performance.
