Uhh.. The CPU is not that good...

270X or 280X will probably be best for you case, but the 280X will probably be bottlenecked.

Not even mentioning the GTX 970, that will be bottlenecked so much :P

300$ ~ 350$ , 1 monitor.. check the res in the topic and going to buy 1080p soon. also tell me which one will be good for stock and which one after overclocking the cpu ?

im a bit of a nvidia fanboy so i would go for the 970 with that budget

on oc or stock? and which actually is better?

Stock and OC..

Your not gonna be able to OC that CPU by enough to stop bottlenecking on better cards.

Yeah, it doesn't really matter a whole ton...

But 270X if not OC'ing and 280X if OC'ed.

Maybe in both cases even a 270X.

 

Your CPU is really not amazing.
