Hey Guys,
I just need some advice on what to get

My specs - i5-3570k 3.40ghz
Gigabyte S. 1155 Intel Z77 Matx
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus
Gigabyte GTX 660ti 2gb gddr5

Im looking at upgrading my graphics card and was wondering if the gtx 980 will be compatible with the rest of my specs and if I need to change anything else.

Well, yes it would be compatible. But I would just go with the GTX 970, its MUCH cheaper and has around the same base clock. Besides the 3.5GB Vram issue, its a great and very dependent card. Did I mention it's cheaper? :p And also if you got a 4k monitor it may be able to push that! :). But overtime if you've got the money, go for a CPU upgrade as well.
