Im about to switch my zotac GTX 680 amp edition for a zotac GTX 970 amp extreme core edition anyone has any other idea for a good graphic card with similar specs to this card that cost max 425$ that is new (not used)

well the AMD equivalent to the 970 is the r9 390. Usually people recommend the 390 as the larger VRAM does have a huge impact in some recent games and games that will be released in the next years.
The 390X goes for around 410 dollar and is slightly faster. (about 7-10% faster)

is there anything ur 680 can't do right now that u want it to?
if not or if it's not that bad, then wait for nvidia pascal. it's right around the corner

Upgrade from 680 to 970 is stupid
Wait for amd and intel to announce whats nxt

what resolution?

I keep hearing rumors thst pascal will have the biggest performance jump from gen to gen

I think its better you wait couple months for pascal to come out first

390 over the 970 for sure
