Having problems choosing a 970.
Ive been changing my mind between the following:
MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming Edition
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 G1 Gaming
Asus GeForce GTX 970 DirectCU II OC Strix
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW ACX 2.0
As far as I understand it the EVGA is the fastest out the box and the Asus the quitest.
Im not really going to be overclocking the card, so I need the best out of the box experience.
I've read good and bad things about all the cards above. Surely when it comes to performance they are all within a few % of each other?
I've owned Wind Force cards in the past so was thinking to make decision easy and get another one, but I understand that the fans dont have the 0 idling thing on the Gigabyte card.
The Asus one looks sexy as it's the quietest, but the EVGA is the fastest from what I see.
