50$ more .. and i don't see the difference other than the 4.5 Vram which i probably won't use

i'm upgrading my gpu so i want some advise i have a 1080p display should i get GTX 970 4GB ( actual 3.5 Vram ) or R9 390 Nitro 8GB or R9 380 Nitro 4GB ps : the Gtx 970 is cheaper than the r9 390 where i live so does the Vram matter for future game ??

Oh my bad .. MV .. sorry

I have been experiencing a problem with the Gpu being capped at idle Clock .. so i've been advised to uninstall The nVidea Driver (cause i have a Gtx 960 ) which worked Fine till i updated my Gpu to the latest Version ( 355.60) then i lunched Batman arkham knight .. the Game crashed as always .. but then i open a Kombuster stress test to see if the Gpu is doing well .. it has a Voltage limit between 837MV to 935MV and my gpu uses 1200W !!!! second the core clock doesn't exceed 500 and memory doesn't exceed 3000 no matter how i overclock it .. but before lunching Bamtan arkham knight and doing the update everything was fine .. so what's the problem ?

Yes i have a k380 Case all fans Installed except for the Side one can't find a place to stick it in .. i though maybe a Gtx 970 would do me better in term of heat ,power efficiency and overclockabilty if that's a word with the same rig and psu

okay Then i5-4460 asus h81- gamer r9 380 4gb nitro same ram same psu and that's actually better for my current budget .. but i'm not sure about the Asus though

Well It's for gaming ..The nearest thing i have in the same price of the Fx-8350 is an Intel Core i5-4460 .. which is kinda lower than the Fx-8350 .. No i don't intend to overclock .. Well my budget doesn't matter cause prices in my region differs greatly than other countries but anyways it's 700$

I intend to get a New Rig other than my current one ..So i'm confused between two builds First one : Fx-8350 R9-380 4GB Nitro 8 GB RAM HYPERX FURY ( 8x1) (cause i intend to get another 8 ) GA-970A-D3P or ASUS M5A97 R2.0 ( can't decide .. i know they are both meh but they are the ones available with AM3+ Socket in my Region .. ) SeaSonic S12II Bronze 520W 80 PLUS Certified ( cause my rig won't use more than 452 W ) Second one Fx-6300 R9 - 390 8 GB Nitro Same ram same Motherboard(s) Same PSU so what do you think ?

All the drivers like Graphics and physx and 3d vision.. or a specific driver ?

Suddenly my gpu is stuck at memory and Core idle clocks .. uses 837 MV Constantly which doesn't not decrease or increase by stress tests or benchmarks .. Could this be a miner or something? PS: TRIED GPU-Z EVERYTHING IS FINE BUT STILL DOESN't STUCK MY GPU: GTX 960 G1 Gaming

One last thing guys .. the quality of the psu effect how much can i overclock the Gpu normally or do i need to Over Voltage ? Edit : what about SeaSonic S12II Bronze 520W 80 PLUS .. sound to be the best there is i get with my Current budget

So The "white list of psu" says that ALL thermaltake psu are Pretty fine .. so i planto get 530w with 80+ Bronze ... is that fine ?

About the heat output of the PSU .. really it's always cool ,, never heats with me and i use the PC 24/7 .. overclocked the Gpu a bit and tried many stress test to the gpu to make it withdraw some wattage .. it doesn't output any sort of heat that i could notice .. But i'm changing it soon .. i just need to know how soon cause i'm at a low budget right now and i need to get something Fine this time .. maybe a corsair or seasonic .. PS: "it did come with the case"

Two month ago i bought a PC i5-4460 Gtx 960 G1 gaming P85-d3 8GB Hyperx (4x2) and a K380 Cooler master case with 500 watt psu ( r500-pcar-i3 ) ,, i have overclock my Gpu since i got it and have been using it for two month but heard lately that my PSU might blow up as it has happened to many people with cooler master psus' should i be worried and change it ASAP .. if so what Brand or PSU IS recommended ?
