970 is basically 1060, so you should be able to do most things 60 FPS high... wait a year and maybe you’ll be able to get one of those new Radeon cards that the leaks say are really good.

this is why future proof isn't real, nobody can predict what future games will require

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I have an EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC ACX 2.0 Graphics Card and was wondering how long will it be able to run at 1080p 60fps on Low/Medium Settings. I just want some advice to go off of when I feel like I should upgrade. Thanks. Merry Christmas.

i would start saving and when you find a GPU on sale upgrade next year, that's my two cents.

if at first you don't break it you must have followed the directions
