What do you find lacking about your system?

Do you just have a stack of money you have to blow or something?

I am just gathering opinions based on others'. I might upgrade to either 1080p 144hz or 1440p 60hz. So I was hoping to see if anyone would recommend a GPU upgrade.

Unless you're not okay with running anything but high/ultra settings, your 970 should be fine for that.

Just a suggestion: in the future, if prices drop, an m.2 ssd could be a viable upgrade. However, with the current pricing of m.2s and as you already have an ssd, I would wait.
