I’m thinking about upgrading/switching my CPU.
Currently I have the AMD Radeon HD 7870 Black Edition and I was thinking about getting a Nvidia GTX 970.
Motherboard: ASRock z77 pro4
CPU: Intel Core i5 3570k @ 4,4 Ghz
RAM: 8 GB, have to check when back home
PU: Also have to check, but I think it must be between 500 and 600 Watt
The CPU and the other stuff should be fine for the nvidia GTX 970, but I’m wondering if the performance increase is big enough to justify 300€ investment.
Any thoughts? Recommend the upgrade or shall I keep my current system?
My main intention is to get rid of the AMD GFX. It would be handy if I can upgrade the GPU and have a performance boost
Also does anyone have details about the noise and the temperature? Would be cool if I can get a noise reduction.
Currently looking at the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 G1 Gaming.
