Upgrade or wait?

[BigChimp97]

Hi guys

Im currently gaming on my old 560ti and am thinking about upgrading. However I keep on thinking that I should wait for the next series... this is my problem. What do you guys think? Ive got £300 could go a little more but not loads more and would be gaming at 1080p what do you all think?

Any opinions are helpful

if you arent bothered too much by the playability, wait for the next gen of GPUs. if you cant play anymore, upgrade. its that simple

What he said, if you can't wait i would consider the Tri-X r9 290

I think you should upgrade to an r9 290. Very awesome card for the money!

Price:Performance would be R9 290 > 780 at your maximum budget

As said, the 290 is pretty neat-o.

 

There's two Tri-X's from what I know, though right now the orange one is BUTT FUCKINGLY over priced. At least on newegg for US atm. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2RY1D87927&cm_re=Saphire_290-_-9SIA2RY1D87927-_-Product

 

There it is if anyone wants to scoff at such a ridiculous price. You could get a R9 290X with that money.

r9 290 for has 4gb vram and trades blows with 780 at a lower price
