Swap my GTX 780

[Mauro (DK)]

I am a little unsure. I sold my GTX780 but not sent yet. and will buy a GTX970 because I want to save a little energy costs but still have brilliant graphics. I don't know nothing about CUDA but the 970 has 1664 and my old Asus 780 DCU2 OC has 2304 i it bad i lower? I play lot of FM14 and soon FM15. I love Assassin's Creed an will get Unity, i will also get GTA 5. So back to start, is a Asus GTX970 Strixs good enough. I have one Asus 24" LED VN247H

The 970 is better than the 780.

the 970 will preform a bit better then the 780.

The core count is offset by the higher efficiency of the architecture, don't worry about that number the 970 is a faster card.

I was afraid of having done something stupid .. So all on all the GTX970 is better then a GTX780 plus use less power =)

yeah you won this gamble but make sure to do the research or ask the forum before you do something like this again, you dont want to get a worse card after all, btw the performance gap will be small but try not to expect a night and day type of experience.

It's better than the 780 in every meaningful way. That said I am not sure if upgrading from a 780 to 970 is worth it unless you sell the 780 and get 2 970s.
