Which of these 970's please?

Cheers all, I think I'll go for the Gigabyte. The reviews on Guru 3D are excellent.

One more question.

It says it has 6 and 8 pin connectors. I take it these both have to be used. My old Corsair 620w PSU only comes with 6 pin PCI-E cables. What can I do? Are the cables available?

As Stulid mentioned you will need to use both, like my HX 620w PSU this only had 6 pin connections so you will need a adapter like the cable below:

Corsair did do a spate where you could apply for a 8 pin cable set.

I had a Corsair 620w and it had 6+2 pin.

I may have one spare, but I've lost all my other cables now. But not to worry, that adaptor is £2.89. I think I can stretch to that expense ;)

I don't know if it matters, but mine is the HX series modular PSU (obviously does looking at RJC's post again)
