Hello guys! I have finally decided between R9 290 and GTX 970, and my choice goes straight for GTX 970. But... Which one to pick now. My wallet has very limited supplies and from what I checked, I can afford the following:

Zotac GTX 970, the basic design, not omega nor extreme version.

Palit GTX 970 reference, which I think is out of the question as it sounds like jet taking off during load and gets the hottest out of all.

Palit GTX 970 Jetstream.

Sooo... Which one of those is the best? What should I go for?

:)

Well, it would be an additional 30 euros, and trust me, I have already pulled the budget high enough :( So, You guys think that Jetstream will do?

They are both good cards and the new msi cooler does have some problems I went asus because i trust them and they have a no coil whine garuntee and if it does have coil whine it can be rma'd

if it comes with coil whine it will also have higher chance to coil whine after warranty!!!

I got the MSI 980 Gaming!! no problems here!!

Maximum budget is around 330 euros, Im from Poland. Asus strix costs around 360 euros here, and the lowest price for msi gaming version is 375. :( Prices are a bit off but what can I do.:P

I saw an OC palit which competes with my zotac extreme (firestrike 10,000+ score) with a 1538 core clock and stock mem clock so I think palit might be a good shout.
