I liked the improved energy efficiency with the 900-series card. When it comes to the Zotac EXTREME I really liked the look of it! *drool* not to mention, I want a silent, and cool machine. So I think the Zotac EXTREME IS PERFECT May actually replace the 970 ASUS Strix SLI I have planned: https://www.komplett.no/k/shoplist.aspx?mode=receive&si=1409269&su=1E6760E1-E62B-40C1-A7C4-7EE4624D69A9
