Depends on what games you play or plan on playing and resolution you play at

bf4 and minecraft maybe battlefront and GTA V at 1080p

I upgraded from a 760 to a 970, for games that actually use your GPU, it was a HUGE improvement

970 would definitely be a step up, sell your 760 for whatever you can for it then save the rest up for a 970 or 390

[DominicNikon]

so no use for the 760?

Unless you are set on the 970 get the 390 it performs better for the same price

If you want to max out games at 60fps then yes you would be better off to upgrade

Well then you don't need to upgrade but battlefront is a more demanding game so you might want to upgrade. If you are happy with the framerates you are getting then there is no need to upgrade.

I used to have a 760 but I upgraded to a 290 (which is similar to the 970) and the difference is incredible. I play at 1080p 144Hz, and now I can take advantage of the 144Hz, with everything maxed.

Battlefront is not more demanding. In some areas its less demanding. Check the frame-rate tests.

Wait to see how that card deals with battlefront, if it's 40+ fps at decent settings at 1080p, then keep the card until next year and wait to upgrade gpus then.  And god help you if pascal does not handle dx12 better than maxwell because that nvidia devotion will be an albatross down your neck.

If you're playing on a 1080P 60Hz screen probably not... I just upgraded from a GTX 760 to a GTX 980 Ti which is a MASSIVE upgrade... but on my 1080P 60Hz panel it's not like a night and day difference. DSR doesn't make a big difference, though the higher framerates makes aiming a bit more responsive in BF4... But the difference from playing on ~med-high settings at 70 fps to playing at ultra settings at 80-120 fps isn't a big deal honestly. I mean I went from playing with a mix of Normal and High settings in GTA5 to playing fully maxed out (except for the advanced graphical settings, since idrc about them tbh), and the textures are nice but the game overall isn't any more or less enjoyable.

 

I think that if you have at least a GTX 660 Ti/760 or HD 7950/R9 280 or better, there's not really anything worth upgrading to if you're playing at 1080P 60Hz... now if you wanna play at 1440P or play on a 144Hz panel then the GTX 970 would be a big upgrade.

Since you play gta5, go for it. You need a 970 minimum to max gta5 anyways at 1080p. And even then it might choke a little.

Well, you could try the games out and see if the framerates are acceptable at the settings you want to run them at. If not, then you have to upgrade LOL
