Is the EVGA GTX 970 FTW+ the best GTX 970 out there?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If not which is?

I bought The MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G last year. Before buying i also did a lot of research on which is actually the best GTX 970 on the market.

In terms of performance, overclocking and temperatures Gigabyte G1 is the best. But i bought the MSI one as the G1 was not available in my country then. According to my findings in the internet:

Gigabyte G1 >MSI Gaming 4G>EVGA 970 > ASUS Strix

I also own the MSI.

If you're wanting to overclock, put the STRIX out of your mind. The MSI Gaming, the G1, the FTW+, the Zotac Extreme Core Edition are all great overclockers.

For plug and play? Pick one.....the differences will depend on silicon quality.

I own the 970 FTW, and there aren't many cards out there that can outperform my cards.
