You don't need that much ram, unless you plan on doing high end modeling most games won't even touch 16gb, I just left a message for someone. Drop to 16gb, and use the extra hundred to get a 1070.

I would rather agree on what we share, than fight on what we don't. - Myself

Sell your 970 and buy a 1070.  It's a massive upgrade.

 

Unless you are gaming at 1080p 60hz.  In that case, keep your 970.  For higher resolution or higher refresh rates, get a 1070!
