that's a old first release review some things had changed since - I guess it not worth the expense to review these cards anymore ..

Well i reviewed the Zotac Video Card GTX 970 ZT-90101-10P as it had a fairly decent 4.5/5 rating and was 20$ cheaper than the others. I hope that i have luck with this card because my AMD HD 7770's are garbage. im struggling to play anything that comes out anymore. Even if this card isn't the best of the 970's, im sure itll be a great upgrade.

I thought you wanted Witcher 3.. GTX 970 Gaming 4G easily the best option here.

in the end all you can do it what you feel is best for you-- you give up looking all the hype over - you chunk one in the cart - you get it in- stick it in your computer - fire it up, and it will work as you expect or it will not
