scoobnut Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 marat569... The 850 pro ssd is around £250 for the 512gb here while the 670 cards are either hard to get or ridiculously priced, both would cost me near £550 or more. Amyr... That I can do.

scoobnut Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Slept on it, made a decision and went for the... Samsung 840 EVO 250GB EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW. Now all I have to do is wait for my news toys to arrive. Thanks to everyone for their help, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobnut Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just a quick update + thoughts... Got the GTX 970 and Samsung ssd both are now installed. Software that comes with ssd for transferring files borked my system so ended up with a complete new install, (Note to self, go with gut instinct first) SSD...fast, gone are the days of making a coffee while waiting for pc to boot. Game loading is also a lot faster and said coffee waits a while longer. 970 card, easy to install, runs quieter than my old 760 and temps seem to be down. Game wise I've hit a snag, probably due to the amount of mods, were some areas in game suddenly drop to 2 fps and game grinds to a halt. Thinking that even this card has limits and I will need remove a few mods. On the whole I'm very happy. A huge thank you to all those for their advice.
