Hi guys,

I'm thinking about to upgrade my R9 280(non X) to an GTX 1060, is it worth the upgrade?

Mine R9 280 have stable overclock:
Core Clock:1100mhz
Memory Clock:1625Mhz

Rest of the System is:
AMD FX 8320 at 4.9GhZ
16GB DDR3 1800Mhz
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0.


PS: I play at 1920x1080.

Thanks in advance :)
