So I know that the 750ti is by far probably the best price to performance when it comes to playing in 1080. Question is actually multiple parts. I plan on using a card for a while, so would it be worth it to get a 760? I haven't considered it before but realized it's actually similarly priced but performs much better overall than the 750ti. Would this be worth it given my situation? Also I don't want to go all out with a $200+ gpu because new cards will be out this year but I need something better than HD 530 graphics on my skylake cpu. Should I go with the 750ti and wait for new cards, or should I go 760 and wait out even longer to save more for a better card after several new generation products come out?

Edit: Nevermind. I actually don't know where i got the idea that a 760 was similarly priced to a 750ti. Disregard this post. xD

Incorrect.
The best price performance GPU currently on the market is the GTX 970, it can max out pretty much all games on 1080p at 60fps or higher without breaking a sweat.
Normally I would suggest buying an MSI Gaming GTX 970, but Nvidia are releasing their new GPUs within the next month, paper launching on Friday, and hard launching at computex at the end of the month. The new GTX 1070 (speculated) will likely outperform a current 980ti or have very similar performance and will be a direct replacement for the 970.
So long story short just wait and buy a better card in a months time.
I would go with integrated graphics for the time being in your case.
I honestly can't see the benefit in dropping money on a new GPU when you're already on a budget with your new GPU.
Save the money and stick on integrated graphics so you can get the 1070 when it comes out, you won't regret it.

This my friend seems to be the best option. I guess i need to just work on my patience.

Side note, should have said best price to performance on a budget. But saving my money for a couple months will increase my budget. And i have a PS4 to hold me over if i need pretty graphics.
 

Haha sounds good, don't have a PS4 but want a thief's end, enjoy that without me ;.;
That said, i've been waiting 3 months now, all aboard the hype train for friday! :)
