My GTX 970 video card is giving me troubles, keeps blanking out and sometimes even locks up my computer so I am looking at replacing it with something that has the same performance or maybe even better performance but it needs to be reasonably priced as I am now a pensioner.

Any suggestions would be welcomed as I haven't looked at video cards for a while and there is a shit load of them out there at the moment.

A good idea would be to say what you consider reasonably priced but

Rx 590 - 270 (USD)
Better than 1060 and close to 1070  (About 20 fps faster than the 970)

Rx 580 - 230 (USD)
Same level of the 1060 roughly (About 10 fps faster than the 970)

1060 - 250  (USD)
See above.
