APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Mid July to Early August 2015
BUDGET RANGE: $375 - $425
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming for Witcher 3 / Rainbow 6 Siege / Some MMOs
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: EVGA GTX 760 with AC OC 2GB and SeaSonic 650w
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: i5 4690k / Asus z97 mobo with Wifi / 16GB RAM / EVO 212 Hyper Cooler (Will look to improve cooling. I don't like the temps I've been getting 60c max) Vizio 1080p TV
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: microcenter (store) / newegg.com / amazon.com (US only)
PARTS PREFERENCES: Have not used AMD cards before but open to the idea
OVERCLOCKING: No SLI OR CROSSFIRE:
MONITOR RESOLUTION:1920x1080 possibly 1440p in future but not anytime soon
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I can't overclock my GTX 760! I have used MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision to adjust the settings. I have benchmarked with Unigine, 3D Mark, Cinebench. The best I can get at is +50 core / +100 memory. Even at that, when playing games like Witcher 3 with mostly ultra settings, I'm getting at most 43fps. I'd like to be able to reach and maintain 60fps.
I'm looking at GTX 970 (don't like the 3.5 VRAM but I take that's all I need for most games) or Fury X. Any advice or feedback is appreciated!!
