Agreed, GPU is the piece I upgrade the least despite playing games. Spend a lot for the upgrade, have it last much longer. Not even looking at the GTX 10xx with the 980's performance, especially the highly overclockable MSI variant.

Thanks. :D Really good, 45-60 FPS on all games. Fallout 4 was the first game that I couldn't play on max settings, the God Rays in that game are too strong. I still run 45-60 FPS on high settings.
Do You let vertical sync ON ?
N.B.: Excellent PC :eek:

I would lose too much time and money trying to sell my 980 and buy a 980TI for very minimal performance increase. MSI is the most overclockable variant of the 980 so I'm getting near 980TI performance anyway.
