Hey guys since Christmas is coming up i might have enough money at the end of the holiday for a second GTX 970 GPU but instead i could buy a core i7

Which should I buy

I currently have a core i5 4690k and a EVGA GTX 970 sc

Thanks, Saulio

Unless you need the hyperthreading of the i7 there's really no benefit.   No performance increase in gaming or very little.

Sli 970 will give you a boost in frames , depending on your monitor resolution and in game settings.

If your frames are slowing then sli for sure.
