Upgrading GPU for GTAV

[sprunk]

Hi. I am thinking about upgrading my graphics card for GTA V.

Here is my current system.

i5 3570k

8gb ram

hd7970 asus 3gb

It actually performs pretty well as it is though,I was thinking about pushing it a bit more. Would i be likely to notice much if a difference going to a GTX970 or 780ti?

Interested in your opinions

Thanks

7970 is more than fine dude..

 

Not a difference that is worth upgrading for tbh

Your GPU is fine. No need to upgrade.

I don't think that its really worth it, 7970 is still a pretty good card.

there really is no need to upgrade 7970 is a great card. having said that there would definitely be a performance increase from either one of those upgrades. but honestly. id give it another year or 2

Just wait a while, like a year or so, or at least until the R9 3xx cards are released. There is literally no point in upgrading to a 780Ti, there will be performance increase, but not worth it.

No point honestly.

Here I am sitting with a 560 and thinking it's still powerful enough.

 

If you wanted, and if your PSU could handle it, you could get another one to use in Crossfire.

However, as the R9 3XX cards are coming soon, I'd wait a little longer.

Thanks for the input I didn't think so many people would advise against an upgrade. I am happy to save some money for now if it is not going to be a huge difference, This has been a pretty good value card. I must say. Maybe I will upgrade my screens for now instead.

Thanks guys

Yeah just hold off until 300 series or next generation nvidia.

Remember that the 7970 is the equivalent to an R9 280X, so going from that to a 970 isn't getting that much more performance. Remember GTA5 is more CPU-bound than anything.
