a gtx 760 will handle most current games at ultra if you switch off multisampling. I am running bf4 for example at 60+ fps with ultra settings, just multisampling disabled.(capped at 60 but it doesnt drop under the ocasional 54 fps)
noone seems to be mentioning that.
yes a gtx 970 is alot better. but the gtx 760 isnt a bad card neither. but for futureproofing, you should go for the 970.

also, the benchmark scores that tiny voices linked are from a evga gtx 970 against a referance card gtx 760. so the temperatured and noise levels and even the performance depends on the brand.
I'm just trying to give you the full picture here. everyone is screaming 970. and I'm sugesting it too. but I'm also telling you, that if you cant afford it. the gtx 760 is still a good option.

But I've heard a lot of bad reviews on the 970, because the reason it comes so cheap is that they cut edges on it. So it's not as durable. The 760 has pretty decent scores, for it's price. I'd say compare the 670 and 970 insteadNo. There is no reason to buy a 2 generation old GPU. The real direct competitor for the 970 is the 780. don't even consider a 670.

I completely agree, why would you compare to a 670?
i havnt read any bad reviews saying they have cut corners...please enlighten me?
if anything, its because it doesnt use as much power that hey havn't needed to put such robust parts in it, not for the sake of cutting corners.

Then you have answered your own question. If you cannot afford the 770, you certainly cannot afford the 970.Buy the 760. You will be happy with it for sure.
yeah but i'm also hesitant to buy 760 also...i want my pc able to run games in the next 3-5 years without problem...you know games are getting more demanding for the specs

games will ALWAYS get more demanding and GPUs will always get more powerful. They are both exponential curves.Waiting is pointless. Buy the best GPU for NOW, not the future. if only i have the money dude i'll immediately buy the gaming rig...i'm so broke right now...i'm just starting my job and i have to save more money to buy pc components so i the only choice i have is to wait

But how many Pesos is it for a 970 with tax? I think Canada and Aus are the kings of overpriced 970s from what I've seen

i'm not sure about the tax...cause it varies from a particular item to another...for example the msi gtx 970's price is $359(15437 pesos) US dollars with shipping...i recently know the price here in the philippines it is 20,950 pesos which is $487 US dollars...see the price difference...it is really crazy

I DO NOT recommend buying parts over time. It NEVER gets you the newest or best parts EVER. You WILL get a worse build doing this.Set a budget, then save for that budget and buy the computer all at one time.
i disagree with this. I constantly upgrade my pc, rarely ever buy all the bits at once. One thing i did do, was got the best gaming cpu available at the time (within reason). So my 3570k is a few years old now, we havnt seen much happen in the cpu arena and its still up there with top tier cpu's. Meanwhile ive been through a couple graphics cards, and still my next upgrade will probably be the graphics card again before i update the cpu. Cpu's are a pretty stagnant market at the moment so if i were building id do the same thing again now, invest in one of the higher end cpu's it should last you 5 years, and just upgrade the graphics card as you need it. There is still a good market on ebay for second hand gpu's so you do gain some money back when you get a new card, not to mention every upgrade ive got new games that ive wanted bundled with the card, which has made up the difference. so i almost feel like ive had a free upgrade if i was going to buy those games anyway. not to mention youve always got sli or crossfire options for upgrades, although i promised myself i wouldnt go dual cards again, always have some bugs that annoy me.
