Hi All,

At the moment, I have a GTX 760, it's the MSI Twin Frozr 2GB DDR5 OC Edition to be exact! I was thinking on upgrading it to SLI, as I've 2 GPU slots on my MOBO but was also thinking should I get a GTX 9XX Series? Or should I upgrade to something better or get a better MOBO/CPU Combo? Tell me the best way to spend my money for better performance :)

Here is my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/alannm37/saved/npsp99

(P.S. Don't suggest AMD GPU's!)

If one assumes 50% scaling in SLI (IE 2 GPU's offers, on average, 50% more raw power than the single GPU), 760 SLI is about the same as 970, which makes 970 a better buy, because it has more VRAM (SLI does not add VRAM together), and every game will benefit from the 970 rather and some with the 760 SLI.

And yes, 650W PSU is more than enough for single 970.

I'm just after seeing that I can only Crossfire with AMD GPU's :/ So what would be the best card to upgrade to? Obviously the best value for performance card. Don't want to spend more than 350.
