Just having a look at this build myself, would it support adding an additional GTX970? Just wanting to make sure I can max everything possible. Unless of course that's not necessary haha

Hi guys, I'm looking at a $2000 build myself. Any idea what settings (high,ultra) this build would run and a guess at fps on those settings? I have a 590gtx build that still runs most things on medium at above 40fps but it's starting to die on me and I am looking to upgrade. The games I would want to play would be total war attila and battlefield hardline.

thanks

@thefoxyone, the build you replied to will run any game at 1080p maxed out at 60 fps no problem. The GTX 590 is still a pretty powerful card and I was going to say buy a 2nd one off ebay used and do an SLI config, but since it's dying on you then you definitely should at least sell it. The i5 4690K will be absolutely kick ass with any game ESPECIALLY cpu intensive ones like total war. Hope this helps. If you have any questions, PM me ;)

@sleepymilo Is the game out yet? If it is then you should be able to find benchmarks online. Otherwise, there is no way of knowing how well it will run on different hardware. The price I mentioned was AUD, although it might have changed since I posted it a few months ago.
