GTX970 question

Theonelemon

Was wondering, since the Asus GTX970 DC2OC BLACK has a 6+8 pin connector compared to the STRIX's 8 pin connector, this means that the BLACK can be overclocked higher and have better performance when overclocked to the max right? Also aren't the cooltech fans better for keeping the card cool?

It means more power , maybe or maybe not better overclocking , depends on the card .

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

I still recommend the G1 card.

They should have put the 6+8 pin on the STRIX as it was their flagship design. It doesn't matter much as the 970/980 are stupid fast anyway.
