Epicness937 :
yes the 1070 is a great choice but a few things before
1 what is the rest of your rig?
2 what resolusion are you playing at?
3 why a 690 just wondering?
4 is there a max budget?
The max budget is on my first message, you should´ve red it...
My rig is fine, i'm not changing anything for the next 4 or 5 years...
Res: 1920:1080 which is perfect on every game, except JC3 and The Forest... These two push my card to its limits, even though i get a rock solid 50~60fps on JC3 (all on medium) and 70~90fps on The Forest (with the graphics on Medium and Some on High, like textures)
And the 690 is wondering in my mind because it's better than a 900 series...
