Hi All,

Was wondering if it worth upgrading to the the EVGA SC ACX 2.0 980 GTX. I have a 570 and been holding out for a solid upgrade. I think its about time, nice little early xmas gift to myself. What do you all think?

Games I play:
BF4, WoW, Dota2, Diablo 3 RoS, Metro, and various others.

Current PC Build:
3770k - CPU
Asus Sabertooth - Mobo
XMS DDR3 1866 32gb - Ram
750W Corsair TX v2 - PSU
Samusung 840 Pro - SSD
WD 3tb - HDD
Asus 22" 1080p older VS series 1ms Monitor (looking to upgrade soon too)

Best choice. People that bought gtx780 a month ago or so must be regretting. You will be able to play most of those games at 1080p with high/ulta settings with good fps.

Good performance/price relation on that card. Go get it!
I will wait a month till I buy it, gonna wait for some card revision.

While it would be a huge upgrade...if you are happy with the current performance you are getting, then I would wait for the next set of GPUs for die shrinkage. Otherwise I would say to upgrade now.

That will be a great upgrade with a huge performance difference form a Gtx 570 I say go for it this is the kind of upgrade you've waiting for.

Yes indeed its a very nice upgrade.
GTX 570 ~= GTX 750 ti
GTX 980 ~=GTX 780 ti Overlocked. So see the difference here.

Your rest of the built is great except a good graphics card. 980 will be greeat

It's probably about time... Passmark's list puts the 970 at slightly over twice as fast as the 570 and that's a pretty solid upgrade.

Guys thank you so much. Definitely going to get it, My PSU should be able to handle that right? Looking to get the EVGA SC ACX 2.0 with a 1266 mhz base clock speed and a 1367 boosted clock speed?

The 570 and the 980GTX actually will use similar amounts of power so no issues there.
