(SORRY MY BAD ENGLISH) In the next monts i will get around 400$ on US to buy a new GPU because my 960 2gb its nuts now, so first i was thinking to buy the 1070 but the 1060 its a good option to muy build, so what GPU should i buy? I want to play latest games on ultra at 2560x1080 60hz like battlefield 1 and others...

2560x1080 60hz
8gb Ram DDR3
1tb hard drive
Intel i7 3770
Gtx 960 2gb Evga ssc
Motherboard Intel DH77EB
Corsair CX600
Stock cooler
Small Case

Or give me other options too ;)

1070 is the best option if you can afford it, I doubt the 1060 is enough of an upgrade over the 960 to make a huge difference, especially if you want to play in 2560.

Hi,

If you are not planning to SLI in the future then I would suggest:
1- Buy GTX 1060 6GB
2- Buy another RAM to have in total 16GB
3- If you have more money left you can buy other upgrades like case fan or CPU cooler

If you are planning to SLI then buy 1070

Regards,

I would recommend an RX 480, they're cheaper than 1060s and perform similarly, and in certain tasks outperform 1060s. If you do have the money though, the 1070 is a little better.
