Not another which GPU thread!!!

I've been going round in circles trying to decide which graphics card to buy to replace my 7970?

My dell monitor is nice but only supports 1080p, I have a i5 3570k CPU and a Bequiet 650w PSU and a £450 budget

ideally I don't want to spend more then I have to but I would like something that will last at least 24months before it gets replaced and allows me to play new releases will all the shiny bits switched on? I have to dial GTA5 right back on my current card

SLI/Crossfire is a option but I would prefer a single card and I have no preference for Nvidia or AMD

Thanks in advance

I'm seriously considering a Sapphire Radeon Fury Tri-X 4096MB HBM

Although if I go down the 970 or 390 route what boards would be a good candidates for a Kraken VGA cooling bundle?

Also what about the original GTX Titan?

More money more problems it was much simpler when I could only afford sub £200 cards and had to make do with a gtx660!

I brought my 7970 in Oct 2013 so maybe 2 years is a unrealistic expectation

Are we likely to see a Nvidia Pascal GPU in 12 months time?

A MGS Playstation 4 is looking pretty sweet about now lol

Plenty of valid points and useful advice from everyone thank you
