I recently purchased all the parts to build my $600 gaming pc but later realized the MB i purchased had a 760G chipset. I found a MB with a 970 chipset for only $15 more. What would the impact difference on my gaming be like after updating to the 970A chipset motherboard? Is there a marginal benifit? Is it worth it?
[MB I purchased](http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131795)
[MB I am considering](http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128627)
Though the second MB is only $15 more, the cost of doing an RMA includes shipping and a restocking fee. I really need to know how big a difference having a 970 chipset will make for gaming compared to my current 760G.
[For reference here is my current build with the second MB included](http://pcpartpicker.com/user/archdruid205/saved/2VX1
