Good price for a 4GB card and a great make.
I have managed to find a Gigabyte Gtx 970 for 215 quid....Still not sure if I should wait ( I am cardless at the moment) for the new pascals. I will be stuck at HD until I get a new TV so not even sure if the new cards will be that great for me. And £215 is a great price I reckon.

Pascal and Polaris wont be anything special other than "lower consumption" and a tiny performance increase. The articles for Pascal that say "x10 performance" mean in compute performance for certain programs (not games), which in its own right is pretty good, but is then classed as nothing brilliant when benchmarks are released and the hype quickly vanishes.
As for Polaris, while they have lower power requirements, they will not have too much of a performance increase either, rather more affordability for VR (say 970 level performance for ~£220)

But what is the relevance? A PS4 is a console this is a graphics card.

But surely lower power consumption and less heat for the same performance means performance could be increased from the hardware? After 2-3 years of using the same hardware they have been able to increase performance?
