GTX 970 best brand

All in the question.
Zotac's one is less price. So I can get additional accessories for my PC. I don't overclock the card. Don't suggest me Gigabyte's one because it has 3fans and the place would be insufficient. Thanks

then it would be ASUS Strix and MSI Gaming(top 2). not EVGA because cooling is not as good on the 970. Though ACX 2.0+ sort of fixes the problem. I would usually go EVGA normally, but maybe not the 970. Gainward one is okay and the Palit one is okay too. Zotac is good for cheap.

I have never had anything from EVGA fail so I always buy their stuff.

I'm using MSI 270x Card now. I kinda liked it, but what would make the difference? I mean all 970 cards offer performance significantly equally. Zotac reviews are good though and cheap at price. As I said, if the zotac card can run all the games with i7 2600 at very high settings, then I would get it and get new gaming mouse and keyboard combo!! Just waiting for the reviews

in all fairness in over 60 builds the only 2 things ive had fail are a asrock motherboard & a evga 650w g2 psu ( which was honestly a surprise)
Ive had gpu's from every manufacturer imagineable ,busget to high end & never had a single model fail.

So what do you say? Should I good with Zotac one and get a keyboard and mouse with remaining money or should I get MSI Gaming card. Budget is not at all problem but saving money would be happy

theres nothing wrong with zotac at all quality wise imo (their AMP! cards are pretty epic) ,the msi card may run a little cooler & push 2fps more at the most - whats the price difference between these cards??

assuming its the basic twin fan model youre looking at ??

its a solid little card with good build quality (I honestly prefer its subdued look over the fancy red & green msi models)

Yeah pal! That's the zotac card I'm looking and the price difference between Zotac and MSI Gaming cards is around 5k indian rupees! :/
What would you say for this? Should I spend 5k indian rupees more for MSI gaming card or can zotac run good?

thats a big big price difference just for the msi branding imo ,that equates to the equivalent of $80?? Id stick with the zotac at that price personally.

Yeah! The MSI card is around 75$ higher than the Zotac one. Thanks for your answers. I'm going with Zotac one
