I can't decide what GPU to get.

[RYANoceros92]

I've been looking for a while now but still can't seem to decide (I'm slightly indecisive). I think I want a GTX 970 but am not 100% set on it if you think there is a better card for my budget please tell me and link to source if possible, I've chosen a few 970 I think I like but not sure which one is the best between them, they are;
Zotac GeForce GTX 970 AMP! Omega Core Edition,
MSI NVIDIA GTX 970 Gaming Twin Frozr,
Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 Strix.

I can buy them all for around £260-£270 which is my budget.
Any help or opinions are appreciated thanks.

You approach this problem from the wrong direction. The question you should ask yourself is what settings, resolution, and framerate you would like to play on. Then choose your graphics card. As for your question, the card with the highest core clock is the best out of the three. Personally I would pick the MSI, huge fan of the Twin Frozr coolers.

The best choice here , would be the Zotac GeForce GTX 970 AMP! Omega Core Edition, having the highest Boost Clock than the rest , while being at the same price point.

Zotac is a great GPU manufacturer that provides quality and reliability. Also the triple fan technology will keep your card cool , giving headroom for Overclocking further.

If your case has excellent cooling, then any one you listed with fan type coolers will perform about the same. They all have decent factory overclocks.

If your case might not have great airflow, I suggest a card with a blower cooler that sends heat directly out the back of the case like this:

I have the AMP! and love it. Very quiet, runs cool.
