go with the 970 or the 780. the 690 is basically 2 680s in sli. wont do good.

R9 390 is the best value card for that kind of money - considering the 970 will get dropped in terms of drivers soon the best thing to do is wait. Wait 1 month for Pascal 1070 or buy a 390. Anything else is wasting money

Would have said R9 390 but since only nvidia a 970 might be your best bet. Just to mention: A 390 will perform better than a 970 in most games. You might want to wait for pascal and the associated price drops.

cant w8 got money problems so must sell my gpu ,and choosing new for next month.

why would 970 be abandoned, it's the most popular gpu on steam... 

 

 

also 970 is cheaper in Lithuania, by quite a bit. http://www.1a.lt/kompiuteriu_komponentai_tinklo_produktai/komponentai/vaizdo_plokstes/filter/340-61958%2C80749/1

Waiting a month would mean getting a 1070 and having the same performance as a 980 for less money

It always happens - newer cards get the driver focus and older ones get tossed aside - when the 970 launched it was slower than a 780 Ti. Now the 780 Ti is slower than a 970.

it's not tossing aside the old cards, but optimizing the new ones...

I dunno... I can only find that Fermi performs bad with the new drivers in Dark Souls III. That might be an Dark Souls related issue. I will search for more.

GTX 970 from Zotac  -> http://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-GTX-970-ZT-90101-10P/dp/B00NNXVPS2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1462217968&sr=8-1&keywords=zotac+970

Obviously IDK how much it is in your country, on US its 295$, on amazon germany its 290€ ... so odds are good you'll get it for around 300€ aswell.

I have the card myself, check signature for benchmarks and stuff.

@Nord or quote me if you want me to reply back. I don't necessarily check back or subscribe to every topic.

You could wait for the GTX 1000 series, the GTX 1060 is supposed to be as powerful as the 970 for $200

u mean 1060 willbe 200 ? ,from few soruces u can find info that 1070 will cost arround 650 or 600 so I dont think that 1060 willbe 200 mby 400 at least.

Well I don't have any, but in my county I saw like 10 of those cards for under 300€.

That means, you should be able to get them under 300$ :)
