Hi guys, I'm going to buy a gtx 970 shortly and I wish to know what would be a better choice. Now, ASUS and MSI convince me both, but they're always out of stock on the 350-360$ price. The EVGA one doesn't have such problems. It's the Superclocked ACX 2.0 and costs 349$. The price is perfect, but I haven't seen a single review of this card on the internet, should I trust EVGA or wait? In the comments on Amazon it says that it's a little bit loud if anyone has this card, please tell how it behaves.

i would agree with barnsley. EVGA are not the best on cooling. anyway the strix is just a better card in my opinion. that is just my 2 cens on the matter. it is a ty for both MSI and ASUS .
Well, I really would prefer MSI or ASUS, but my problem is that they aren't available. The Gigabyte is to long for my case, the EVGA you say it's not that awesome, what could you say about the Zotac one, it's even cheaper, only 329$. Is it good, cause I don't want to wait for an eternity to get it.

This is the Zotac that I have in mind.

That's quite generous. One heatpipe isn't even sealed, so its doing pretty much nothing

Oh alright, I guess I just saw the first revision

Its kinda like putting glitter on a turd.
Even considering the heatpipe missed I bet it doesn't hurt performance 'that' much. The fact that the fans could be as awful as the previous lot of ACX coolers are what worries me about the EVGA card.
My friend just got an MSI 970 and it looks very bent sitting in his conventional layout case. I would get the Strix but tbh I just don't really like 970's, I wouldn't actually get any of them so my personal opinion is kinda irrelevant.
