GTX 980M benchmark with FX-8320E 1080p, 1440p, Ultrawide, 4K benchmarks at High Quality

In terms of cost, pricing clearly is a genuine issue here and the price of GTX 980M is simply ridiculous. For the most part, the GTX 980M is still capable of playing modern games, but you would have to reduce settings to sustain those higher framerates. If keeping graphics quality settings closer to ultra or high is important, there are a few options for upgrades. In terms of memory, the GTX 980M 's 8192 MB RAM is more than enough for modern games and should not cause any bottlenecks. This combination between GTX 980M and AMD FX-8320E Eight-Core has less than 15% bottleneck in many games and can cause minor FPS loss.
