Slightly slower than a R9290X

Factory overclock is a little pale compared to rivals
Core clock could be higher out of the box without compromising stability.
When the GTX 970 4GB launched just last month, the price difference between it and the R9 290X 4GB was quite significant. Considering the performance of the card ,and the cheaper price point, it was a no brainer when it came to picking the new Maxwell ba...
There's no doubt that Maxwell is impressive. Nvidia have really put it to AMD with their next-generation, while also undercutting their own range of high-end cards at the same time. The GTX 980 might be the flagship model right now, but a combination of l...
The Asus GTX 970 costs 60 per-cent of what a GTX 980 comes for but performs at about 90 per-cent of the GTX 980. And the ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 970 which comes with a factory overclock is all the more better compared to a stock card.Gadget DealsRecommende...

The Asus Direct CU II housing is massive
The GeForce GTX 970 is astounding. Never before has a GPU delivered such perfect pricing for powerful performance. The staggering 4 GB of VRAM and high clock speed comes close to the GTX 980, while Maxwell's signature power-saving dance moves under the ho...

An Eagle SoarsHere comes the ASUS STRIX GeForce GTX 970.Byline: by dinWhile the fanfare is on the new NVIDIA GTX 980, the real jewel of NVIDIA's latest chipset technology is, if you ask me, found on the lower rated GTX 970. Though slower, it has the best...
The ASUS Strix GTX 970 is one card that we definitely recommend to those who are starting to move beyond 1080p gaming. It's literally silent for the most part, and performs on par, if not better than the high-end GTX 700 cards, and is power efficient to ...
The ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 970 retails for a whopping RM 1,499 – quite a steep price to pay for a GTX 970 card but I guess that's what you have to fork out for a good cooler that's a silent performer.For what it's worth – you're paying for both the card o...

Abstract: Without a doubt, the much-publicized memory addressing issue in the NVIDIA GTX 970 put a couple of dents its sales. Even so, the somewhat-flawed GTX 970 remains excellent value for the PC-everygamer.Part of the reason is that the vast majority of GTX 970 products on the market are not made by NVIDIA; rather, Add-in Board (AIB) partners alter the reference design to add features or reduce cost.ASUS’ approach in the past...
The ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 970 is totally a powerhouse GPU card with its well build body and very power efficient card been running for me 24/7 and when it's idle totally you will not hear any noise with it.ASUS is giving a 3 year warranty for the card wh...
