Appreciate the list!
Rest of the rig includes i5 3550k @ 4.3, 16 GB GSkill memory at 2133, 2 Samsung 500 GB EVO, and the board escapes my mind right now but does indeed support PCI Express 3.0 x16 (2 actually).
I just never upgraded the card simply because it ran anything I cared about.
Might have to go with the 900 series I think.
Thanks again everyone!
