I have an i7 920 in an x58 board and i am looking to upgrade my 750ti to a 970. Is a 970 compatible with that cpu and mobo and will there be any significant performance loss if so
 
Solution
It should work, so long as you have the power supply with 2 six pin cables for the card. I might suggest an overclock and a water cooler for the CPU. That cpu is sort of sluggish for that GPU. What I mean is you're near a bottleneck area after that. :)
