I'd get the FTW+ if I had to. Unless you have the later batches of 970 ftw, you wouldn't have a problem with coil whine. I didn't have any problem with mine but lots of people complained and it got address with Ftw+ and later batches of ftw.If you get any coil whine on any card, just try folding with for a day or two, supposedly cure whatever makes the whine.
