Sell 2x 970 g1 gaming and buy 1070 or cf rx 480?

[bughtoo]

So i had the opportunity to buy these 2 beauties for 360$ with warranty on each of them at least one year. 

 

I think i can sell them for 430$ together or maybe more. should i keep them or sell them and buy something like 1070 or cf rx480?

If you could afford a GTX 1070, then yeah, that would be the best choice over the Crossfired RX 480s and SLI'd GTX 970s.

the thing is i can i think sell these cards for like 220 euros each and for 450 i can get an 1070.

u know the founders edition is 70 euros more expensive. Say an EVGA SSC 1070 would be the way to go or maybe even the sc, JUST DONT GO FOUNDERS

 

MSRP: $370

Founders: $450

[bughtoo]

ok, in my country founders edition is the cheapest so far :-/

oooh fuck. well i feel u mate. a 1070 here is like $600 or something

[bughtoo]

Its ok i desided to keep the 970 after some research i did the 970sli g1 gaming when oced to 1500mhz each, they are  10-20% faster in games that support sli.

 

I know about dx 12 suporting only one gpu so far

Well nvidia unoptimizes their older cards so people dumb them and buy the new ones. But just dont install the last driver.
