You should be able to OC your current card and get similar performance to the 980. Getting a 980 wouldn't be a noteworthy upgrade but getting a 980ti would be. What issues are you having to make you think you need a different gpu?

What monitor/resolution are you gaming on?

Not much really. You'll get around 20% performance gain at most if you upgrade to the 980 strix. So roughly 15 more average fps at 1080p GTA V. The gigabyte gtx 970 when overclocked heavily will almost match a REFERENCE 980 at stock speed.

i think asus strix 980 is good for oc and heavy duty
 


Sure it is but coming from a 970 to a 980 to overclock to me is moot since the 970 can run most anything the 980 can and they both will fall short of 4k support and dont offer much beyond 1080p.


Unless you're actually having issues with the 970, I dont see the benefit of the 980 as an upgrade path. If your framerates are slightly low, I would overclock the 970 and if that doesnt quite work then you may have an actual case to buy the 980.
