I recently owned a MSI R9 270 gaming 2GB gpu but it's already defected right after the warranty ended, so disappointing, obviously i'm looking to buy a new gpu, i was thinking about buying the Galax GeForce GTX 950 OC (single fan) does anybody have any experience with this card, is it any good? cause i got a good deal on this card.
I usually play games 6-8 hours a day

My specs: AMD FX 6300
ASUS M5A97 R2.0
Two 8GB RAM KINGSTON
Corsair TX650 PSU

It should be ok at 1080p gaming, a friend of mine just got one and he loves it but he was upgrading from a gt 630 so it was a huge increase in performance for him, I think the 270 though is about the same as the 950, not sure exactly how close they are but you might not see much of a performance increase.
