Need a little help

[SoupyPancakes]

So like a couple of days ago I posted that I am looking for a decent graphics card and a psu to support it and the results where and GTX 950 with a 500 watt psu. I was very happy with the results but yesturday I thought to myself maybe I should get the 970. Here is a link http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=04G-P4-3973-KR. Now my system is an aspire tc-120 with an AMD Radeon HD 8670D, which is an apu by the way. I just need to know if the 970 or 960 will also work for me. I also understand that I might need a bit more wattage. Also could this all fit in a micro-mid atx tower case.

I would get the GTX 970.  You can get a pretty good PSU at Corsair's outlet page.  I have a MSI GTX 970 in my other PC and it is a solid work horse.

The 970 is the better buy.  It comes with a The Division for free.  So it's like buying the card for $250.

I wouldn't touch an APU with a 10 foot pole.  They're fine for 720p 30fps gaming I guess.

I vote the 390 because it's cheaper than the 970 and has basically the same performance in DX11 (better in DX12) as well as double the VRAM. What PSU do you have specifically?

Ill be getting 1 of these psu's depending on the wattage I need http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DGHKK7M/?tag=pcpapi-20. I was thinking of going with this exact gpu any thoughts I have decided the 970 is just to expensive.

I would shoot for higher than 500watts for the 390.

If your current PSU is 400watts then it'll run a 970 easily.

I would also look into upgrading your CPU so there are no bottlenecks so you get maximum performance.

Yes I have thought about that too but for know that will have to wait. I already made a page asking about a new cpu and mother board, in preperation for the day that I do want to upgrade further.
