My G1 gaming 970 is really too long for the m-itx form which I want to swap to.

 

After using my new jobs pc's (and wanting to kill myself due to just how bad they were) I wanted to make my rig even smaller.

 

My sisters tower has a 780Ti reference so I thought id ask her to swap and compensate with some $$$.

Are you asking which is better or how much you should give her? 780ti beats the 970 and comes close to the 980. In terms of cash, it should be a pretty even trade. Maybe throw like 50 bucks her way.

Yeah $50 was around the amount I had in mind.

Too little improvement in performance, not worth the effort
