NVIDIA GTX 970 OWNERS THREAD

[Locky]

And pre-orders over the weekend

Poor Galax ain't getting a look in

I keep looking at the galaxy ones but I think the killer is the 2 years warranty vs the 3 years..

I swap my galax cards for msi, because i cannot found a lot of information about galax. nothing at eu webpage. only at japanese))
Can you give me few benchmarks which i can use to test my card?

 

[Vimes]

Caved in an ordered the MSI version (hope that I don't regret not going for the Gigabyte).

Still the MSI seems a stomping card for the money and my Son will appreciate the 670GTX it will be replacing.

Here ya go.........

From what was “Galaxytech” and its European brand “KFA2”, we now bring you “GALAX”; a merger that can offer a single unified brand World wide, making it possible to offer our world wide customer base the exact same product portfolio, service and comsumer awareness.

Founded in 1994, GALAXY has built its reputation as the behind-the-scenes designer and manufacturer of many of the most popular OEM-branded graphic card products on the market

Bit the bullet and ordered a couple of those MSI 970s, my poor old credit card

Fed up of jumping from one single gpu to another and just want something that'll set me up for at least the next 12-18 months like the 670s have for some people

Anyone chanced a "Air Boss" yet?

Because selling the same products worldwide with either a Galaxy sticker or a KFA2 sticker on them wasn't exact enough lol.

^ At first glance power delivery system (chokes, mosfets, vr module) looks inferior to Giga/Msi sku's.

Though very decent cooling stack

They're selling them (Galax GeForce GTX 970 Extreme Overclocked) here in Oz but i went for 2 x MSI 970 Gaming.

Will they come a with an SLI bridge, I haven't used SLI before? In fact i feel like im cheating on AMD as Ive been with them since when 'Crysis' first came out!

Wow, that looks wild. Too many small fans for my liking though. Makes me worry about the noise it will generate.

No sli bridge unfortunately buddy. I went for two MSI as well

 

[Geo-Gamer]

My MSI just came a few hours ago.

Loving the free mouse pad that came with it!

Dont know If it will replace my Corsair mouse pad but wont hurt to start testing the two

 

[MOOGLEYS]

SLi bridges usually come with the motherboard.

Wow... no s***! Nvidia are that tight?!

"SLi bridges usually come with the motherboard."

ok thanks!

 

[Josu]

Anyone using this 2 cards in sli with ROG Swift monitor?
what about perfomance

 

[mysticsniper]

The G1 fits fine in a 540, has an inch to spare, I have it sat in mine now:

Excellent, thanks for that.

How will Nvidia know how many spaces are between your GPU's? That's why they come wiht the motherboards.

Honestly would have been tempted but ETA 31/10/14???? Bit late to the party.

 

[l2ez4m]

Can anyone with MSI sku confirm if power limit on default bios is only +110% instead of +125% like on other sku's?
