Think it is worth upgrading from 2 x 7950's at present?  currently i have 4670k, 16gb ram, 2x7950, 250gb ssd.

You shouldn't need to upgrade then, two 7950's should be able to max out almost everything yea?

If it can't I'd be surprised.

 

2x 380x would be an upgrade.

One of them may not be an upgrade, but a sidegrade.

 

2x 290x's at current prices would be nice...

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

You should ask yourself the question -> are you happy with your current performance? -> if yes don't upgrade. THat way you won't be spending money on marginal improvements. Besides 4K gaming on max settings isn't feasible with any of the current gen cards even in crossfire/sli.

G5 casemod is done :D!
