I'm looking to build a new pc but i can't choose which graphics card i should get. Or i get a 950 or i get a 960. I'm looking to do gaming ofcourse but i don't need to be able to run every game at the best framerate at ultra. i'm happy if i can run every game at a decent framerate at high. and ofcourse CS:GO at around 200FPS on high ;p

960 or 380 will do you just fine, but I would lean towards the 380 because they are at simlar price points and the 380 performs much better than the 960

there is a large difference between the 950 and 960 if your set on Nvidia I get the 960 it will be worth it in the long run but like everyone else has said the R9 380 would be a better performer
