dazkyl - You have overpriced hardware at Your country. Best hardware for buck is 970 at this point, best out there is Titan-Z, or some AMD graphics card. I've had 480, 580, 680, 780 and now I hit 970, because I figured it's a massive waste of cash. I have my strigx 970 for barely 240 eur, whereas few percent stronger 980 cost twice and more :/.
