Hey there,

Just wanted to say I have the MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G and I love it!

The main advantages I can see is that the card is very quiet even with the fan turned up, the cooling capability is fantastic and the layout and scheming of the card is very sleek and beautiful (if that is also of any concern).

I don't have an on opinion on EVGA but I've heard their customer service is outstanding.

Personally, I think whichever GTX970 you will buy you will most likely be satisfied with as it is an excellent card.

Best of luck to you!

^ - Yes EVGA's customer service is outstanding! I call them just for technical info on products, not for product problems. Their products are outstanding!

Is the GPU software included with EVGA card is good.

What about the max temperature and noise at full load in both cards?

And what are the cons in Zotac,Gigabyte and Asus?
