I've had terrible stutter just gaming at 1080p since I got the card so I think there's other 9xx card related issues that haven't been identified. The card isn't even being pushed to 100% usage and stutter occurs.
People seem to assume it's just when vram gets over 3.5gb but it's not. There's something strange in the neighbourhood with these 970 cards.
I can directly compare to 290 too as I had this card previously in same system and had zero issues with frame times and stutter - just heat. Both are MSI twin frozr 4g gaming cards too.
I'm going to refund and wait for next gen; back to 2gb 770 (no stutter edition) with slightly lower settings for a few months for me.
