GPU Upgrade

[Siathon]

Hey folks, got a question:

 

I've been planning on upgrading my GPU -and some other parts - for quite some time now and can't really decide what to do.

My situation: I'm considering myself a frequent gamer (nowadays about ~3h daily - has been more) and i absolutely HATE delay, lags, stutters, frame drops and so on...

Current System: msi GTX770 OC

Gigabyte GA-X99-UD5

Intel i7 5820k (no OC)

Corsair LPX 16GB 2133Mhz

Win 10

Oh, Screen is a LG UM65 something (2560x1080)

 

I mainly play a CS:GO mod that you can basically play on a potato but i throw in new titles and demanding Games from time to time.

Though my 770 works absolutely fine I know its time has come in my rig (Witcher 3 really didnt run well...)

 

I planned on getting a 980Ti (Didnt have the greatest experiences with the AMD-line in the past) but nvidia seems to have new stuff in the pipeline - big surprise...

Now i know there has not been too much out about Pascal and 2016's realeases but the stuff thats out there has honestly confused me a bit.

I dont really know if it will be worth it to wait for this years releases or to strike now and get a 980Ti.

It's not a matter of time and money for me (as long as its not significantly more expensive than nvidias flagships atm), I don't need it right away, though it would suck to wait 6 months to get 5 fps more for +200$ (or so...)

I use my PC for Gaming as i said above and various Programs for University stuff (Rhinoceros, Photoshop, Illustrator..No Video editing!) - Though i never really had any big demands concerning GPU power there - works really good.

 

If you guys have a recommendation or if you can clear things up for me about this years' releases of nvidia I'd be glad to hear it.

Thanks!

or wait for new releases from either AMD or nVidia, unless you absolutely can't wait.

Polaris(AMD) is coming out September-ish and Pascal(Green Team) is coming out May~June-ish
