So i have gtx 660 right now running on a 600w power supply and i think its about time i upgrade my GPU i was thinking a 970 or 980, i mostly play guild wars 2 but i also wanna be prepared for any new mmo's/rpgs that come out in the near future...

As much as i would love to have a 980 im looking for the most bang for my buck thats really gonna shine and not regret spending as much money or anything

thanks in advance for opinions~

970 it is, a major upgrade from a 660ti :)



However, i wouldnt upgrade, and try to get an additional used 660 for sli until next gen :) as long as youre on 1080p youll be ok

Sli 660 should perform as a 780

yes if he can get it for 100ish

after that no point considering he could just sell his for 100 and he be 2/3 the way on 970 or even so close to 290

So i've came to the conclusion that i want a whole new card, what would you guys recommend i get?

I am looking at 970's mostly because they are a new "shiny" to me so it looks/sounds nice...

Let me know your opinions and what i should be upgrading to rather then what i want....
