Hey guys,

Looking to upgrade my GPU for Christmas. Budget is set at around $350. I've done a fair amount of research but there’s so much information out there it’s hard to come to any decent conclusions. Basically I’m looking for a card that will be able to run most upcoming games (ex, Dying Light) on high or max settings. Also looking to get about 2 years out of the card before I have to upgrade again. My current system specs are below:

I5 3450 @ 3.10
16 GIGs RAM
750w power supply
Radeon 7850 2 gigs.
Windows 7 – 64 bit.
MB ASROCK|Z77 EXTREME4 Z77 1155 R MOBO

Here’s three I've been considering. I’m not sure if switching from a current Radeon to a Geforce will cause any issues. I’m sure it won’t. This is Canadian Newegg we’re dealing with, too. Because, well, I’m Canadian, man.

there is no card to call the best for $350 for december.
video cards evolves quickly. but as for now i think GTX 970 will be the best for you

Save yourself $100 and get comparable performance to the previous gen. 280X trades blows, handily, with the 770.

R9-280X 3GB

Don't even consider a GTX 760 at those prices
