What Are The Differences Between All The EVGA Geforce GTX 970's

[Lazyboy10]

I am doing my first build soon and I'am trying to choose a good graphic card. I currently have chosen the (EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB SSC ACX 2.0 Video Card). I don't understand how it is different from the other GTX 970s.

Mine - EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB SSC ACX 2.0 Video Card

Other ones are

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC+ ACX 2.0, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Card (04G-P4-2977-KR)

EVGA GTX GTX 970 Superclocked 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Card (04G-P4-1972-KR)

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 Super Clocked ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0 4GB Graphics Cards 04G-P4-2975-KR

EVGA GTX 970 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Card (04G-P4-1970-KR)

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Card 04G-P4-2972-KR

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Card 04G-P4-2978-KR

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW+ ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 256bit, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP SLI Ready Graphics Cards 04G-P4-3978-KR

Please explain clearly what are the difference and what would the best one be

 

[Eximo]

Clock frequencies. Video outputs. Cooler size/shape/efficiency.

ACX 2.0 cooler is a large dual fan axial cooler. Heat from this basically stays in the case and relies on case exhaust fans.

Standard Superclocked and the EVGA GTX970 are more traditional blower style coolers that will exhaust heat out of the rear of the card.

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0 will have the fastest off the shelf overclock.

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 FTW+ ACX 2.0 will likely be the best at overclocking due to its custom PCB. + Indicates that it is the slightly newer version that supports EVGAs LED lighted SLI bridge.
