I mostly (exclusively) play Battlefield 5. I think my SSD is holding me back space wise, and given its age should look to be replaced. Is there mileage in upgrading the GTX 970? I don't think CPU is ever a bottleneck but memory on Chrome with infinite Reddit can slow the whole thing down.
I'm fairly sure I am M2 and DDR3 2400MHz compatible if this is worth exploiting?
No budget but definitely not one to send stuff to landfill. I had my i7 920 D0 for 6 years before upgrading.

Edit: I also notice some screen tear on the U2711. I'm connected via DVI-D at 1440p. Is this the best connectivity?
