970 or 980?

[Guest]

Is it worth it to sell my gtx 770 for $320 USD and get the 970 or should I fork it out for the 980? Thanks

970 would be a worthy upgrade but 980 would be better D:

If you can get that much for your card, sure. But it's only $9 more to get a 970 so you might have a hard time.

1080p 970

1440p 980

yeah thats what I was thinking but for like 10 bucks difference, you can't beat it

[Enderman]

That's a decision you need to make based on the amount you use your PC, and the money in your wallet, and your job and income, etc...

[Excon]

No way in hell youll get 320$ for that 770

They're not $10 apart?

well you might not get what you want for your 770 but get whats in your budget

970 is 330, and I am trying to get 320 for my 770

[Guest]

Ok yeah I mean I got 3 free games, a free shield, and 100 dollars off (from selling my old card) so selling it for anything would get me cash since my 770 was basically free

If you get 320 for your 770, sell it without thinking twice. 

[ELSknutson]

Oh well get the 980 then lol or wait till the 980 ti comes out

I think that I will be able to get 320 since I have the Nvidia packaging; stock Nvidia cooler

[Guest]

Yeah but I still think that 200 bucks is insane for 400 more cuda cores

Thought you meant the 970 and 980.

yeah thats what I was thinking, my 770 can do 4k somewhat reasonably (30hz tv) but still it can render fire strike in 4k with screen tearing  gashes

I was referring to gaming on those res (Maxed settings with 60+ FPS), if you JUST wanted to watch at 4k, a GTX 750 (Ti) could do it

oh ok I think I will get a 970 and then an rog swift later on

Doesn't really make a huge difference. Even the 6gb 280x vs the 3gb 280x only gains a couple fps.

Eh. I only play at max settings. I wouldn't trust a 970 to pull it off.

[Stoggy26]

Im happy that it come with hdmi 2.0 be able to run at 60hz on my 4k tv

[Jey R.]

Trust me. People would buy 770 even for 350

@TheCovertCamper the going rate for a 770 is 250$ shipped (with a good aftermarket cooler)
