Solution
GTX970 hands down if your use is gaming.
The 3570K is still very good for gaming, particularly with a mild overclock.

And... if you can find the budget, make the "C" drive a ssd. 120gb at least.
The benefit is not so much boot up time as making everything so much quicker.

Don't shut down and boot unless you need to. Use sleep to ram(S3, no hibernate)
Your pc will enter a very low power state and wake quickly.
