Hi, I'm currently in the process of deciding on a new desktop. I'm looking at these two 'next day delivery' machines:
£864

£905
https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/computers-for-next-day-delivery/277/
For an extra 40 quid I appear to be getting an upgraded GTX960 to a GTX970, an improved cpu and an extra 8gb's of ram, (although its DDR3 rather than DDR4)
Seems to me to be well worth the extra 40 quid but I'm wondering is there a reason for that in a performance context.
Is it as much of a no brainer as I think it is to go with the Velocity GTX IV?
Also, for that much money would you consider a different build altogether? The GTX 970 looks like an awesome card both performance and energy efficiency wise.
I'm looking for a desktop that will last me the next 5 or six years and one which will be able to handle graphic intensive games without a fuss for the foreseeable future.
thanks
