Hi guys. My system is currently using an older HD 6950. My power supply is a 500 Watt Corsair model. I have been contemplating getting one of the new GTX 970's but part of my problem is that my case is a small MATX case. I would like to stick with an AMD card but there seems to be no model that will be small enough to fit in this older small case and also be powerful enough to drive a 1440P monitor with good frame rates. Although I would consider upgrading to a larger case if need be, but that is also an extra cost consideration too, and I believe if I used an equivalent AMD GPU like the R9 290X it would require a much better power supply than I have is that right?
Any expert opinions would be helpful thanks in advance!
