Ah I kind of figured you weren't in the US, that sucks (for purchasing I mean), but yes the MSI GTX 970 is a good option. If money is no object for you and you can afford it, I would just suggest getting a 980 Ti right away. I know they are about $150-200 more, but they are atleast TWICE as fast as a 970, but like I said previously if your on a budget and that is all you can/will spend, then yes the MSI GTX 970 is a great choice! The only other company I personally will use for Nvidia products other than MSI is EVGA.
Yeah I saw it but unfortunately I can't afford. I think I'm going with the gtx 970 :) Thanks so so so much for the help man <3


This is why I like helping people! Just to see them smile or get excited! :D

Dont choose nvidia and you cant go wrong its just non stop Nvidia tax and crazy gimic's with that company, if your gona go for it wait for the r9 390x best card out on the market to date also if you then want freesync its only a matter of upgrading to a monitor that supports it (at no extra cost of the freesync) it also doesnt have the CPU drainage that g-sync has. Also the GTX 970 is not true 4gb its 3.5gb with a 512mb partition .....yet more lies from that company.

Dude, make sure you have a good enough power supply. Seeing as you used to run a HD7570, and can run that on about 350 watts. You may need to upgrade to a better Power Supply 500 watts or greater. Otherwise you're not going to be running anything.

an R9 390x is a re-badged 290x and don't listen to this guys bias opinions. I've OWNED those cards. They aren't as good as he's claiming.

And a 500+ watt PSU would be fine.

I run
Asrock Extreme4 mobo
16gb G.Skill RAM
i7 3770K @ 4.6 ghz
EVGA GTX 980
Corsair H100i aio cpu/water combo cooler
5 120mm case fans
and 4 external usb 3.0 devices on a 650 watt and it almost loads it out 2/3rds.

No I know that it is fine, that's why I recommended a 500 watt one or better.

You would check by looking at the sticker on your power supply. Aka: removing a side panel and checking.
