Time for an upgrade

[Scruffy90]

It's time for me to upgrade my 670. Its almost 3 years old and i'm looking to replace it with something that has more power and is a lot quieter than the model 670 I have. Unfortunately I don't know which card I should upgrade to. My primary use is multimedia work (video editing/compositing, photoshop, etc) and I'm starting to play video games more frequently again.

 

Here's what I would like to get out of my next gpu.

-1080p 60fps+ on most games (I have larger res monitors, but mostly play on my tv).

- Has to run as quiet as possible. (My 670 is the only thing in my rig that makes noticable noise).

- Would like to stay with NVidia because of the CUDA support in Adobe software.

a gtx 970 all the way also (MSI if it matches your color scheme)

Gigabyte g1 970, best 970 on the market. Ps I didn't buy a g1 970 because I didn't know at that point and the msi is the best looking.

Not so worried about the color scheme. My desktop sits under my table in a windowless Define r5. The MSI is one of the one with the silent mode correct?

Is the g1 quiet?

 

The 970 is still the best bang for the buck? Should I even consider the 980ti?

I had the same Card as you

How much money do you have?

You should consider upgrading your Display too and switch to 1440p.

of all the GTX970s i believe MSI has the quietest cooler

ADobe supports OpenCL rendering/compute. Atleast the Adobe products ive got in my CC subscription, which is like all of them

OpenCL performance with AMD is just as fast, sometimes even way faster, then CUDA.

My msi 970 is pretty quite even at 70% fan speed, the gigabyte one is apparently pretty loud but you don't need to put fan speed more than 50-60% really, the 980 ti is overkill for 1080p so don't spend that much mate.

Budget isnt a concern, I started a seperate savings for me to spoil myself with.

 

I also have 1440p displays. I have 2 Dell u2713hm's at my disposal.
