I've been through this a lot, and I'm just deciding if I want to sacrifice more performance for a less hefty price tag or just get them something that will last them. The budget they gave me was $800.
This build has the pricier EVGA GTX 970 FTW+ video card.

This build is with the more budget oriented PowerColor R9 380 4GB PCS+.

So I'm just wondering if anyone can give me some advice, or maybe offer better options for either build?
They're more than likely only going to be playing in 1080P for a lengthy while, and they might be playing games that do need higher end graphic power. GTA V mainly I'd believe.
