Wait for next generation. CES is going on right now and Vega is being showcased, Nvidia has something planned and plenty more.

You have another issue which is your CPU also.

Ok, Will wait to see what comes out.

And yeah, planning on switching to intel. looking at the i7-6700k, but waiting for benchmarks from Zen.
