hello guys 
i want to thank you beforehand because i know you will help me toms forum guys are always the best
my gtx 570 start artifacting a year ago. i used the oven trick (baking it) and it worked again, but lasted without artifacts for only 6 months. then i did a second oven trick, and lasted for 6 more months. then i did the oven trick again, and now after only like 1 month of the last trick, it is artifacting again
ill try to bake it tomorrow, but i dont know if it will work
the thing is, with polaris/pascal so nearby, only like 3 to 4 months to come, idk what to do
if i oven trick the gtx 570 and it last until that, ill wait, but i am not sure it will (also i am scared of my oven everytime i do the trick, i mean, for the food :c )
if i decide to go for a video (the big problema is that i dont have integrated video, so i need a discrete video) what should buy?
the main idea should be to buy a cheap video while pascal/polaris come, but idk if the performance per Price will beat for a big margin to todas gpus
so what i want to know is if i should get one of the following: gtx 950 oc at 150usd; gtx 960 vanila at 180usd; r7 370 at 135usd, or r9 380 at 190 usd,
what i mean is for example if the new gen cards for 180usd are only 5% better than todas 180usd cards then i rather buy today than waiting, but who knows?
TLDR:
gtx 950 oc at 150usd; gtx 960 at 180usd; r7 370 at 135usd; or r9 380 at 190 usd?
best Price performance
or an ultra cheap sub 100 usd video to wait for pascal/polaris?
thanks
