hey bros...now i'm going to upgrade my gpu to gtx 970 so i'm confused between the msi geforce gtx 970 gaming and the gigabyte geforce gtx 970 wf3oc...i'm going to use this pc for heavy gaming only so which on is better in overall performance and especially for gaming...i think it's obvious that the msi is gaming edition but i just want to know which one is better and the gigabyte has 3 fans instead of two so i think it's better for cooling so plz tell me which one is better
msi geforce gtx 970 gaming vs gigabyte geforce gtx 970 wf3oc
thx in advance :)
 
Solution
I personally recommend Windforce cooler because they do an amazing job at keeping your GPU cool, and the cooler isn't very loud until it passes 50% speeds, MSI's twin frozr is also really awesome but overall Gigabytes cooler is a little better, and very large!

but why is the msi more expensive?and is the gigabyte better for games?
 


Both have same clock speeds and RAM so neither beats out the other in performance in video games, however the Gigabyte cooler does keep the GPU a little cooler while playing said games.
 


one last question 😀 will both of the gpus fit in this mobo:gigabyte 990xa ud3?especially the gigabyte gpu?
