build is now little over my budget but I think I will go with it.

The 950 is OK, it will handle any game at 1080p, if you are willing to go down to high or medium.... It should satisfy your needs, and when it will no longer be good, you will swap it with a newer one...

An R9 380 is even better, but if you can't spend that much money, the 950 won't be terrible either

On Battlefield 4, I get 70fps (most of the time) on the high preset with my 950... In FarCry, you might want to turn some settings down a bit though.. 

 

With the games that you play, a 950 is fine... And it will save you some money....

Yes, spend some more money for the 950, DX11 titles are better on the 950...

So, my two cents are, buy the 950 and overclock it... Boom, you have 960 level of performance for $40 less!
