Hi all:

             I asked for GPU suggestions a couple of months back and was about to get the R9 280x or the GTX 960 4gb SSC,  but I got a promotion at work recently and my budget has gone up to about $350.

I was thinking about the GTX 970 but heard that the last 512MB of their memory was partitioned which meant it would run slower when its being used so not sure if I should get it. I was hoping some PC savy people could help me out and give me some suggestions on what card to buy for my budget/system.

My Specs are:

MOBO: P8 P67 Pro

CPU: Intel I-5 2500k

GPU: GTX 570 HD SC

PSU: Corsair 650W

Thanks for the help!
