Damn I want this gpu my last one PC GPU was gt 220 and my current laptop only gt 635m. Really cool card :D , I would sell my soul for this gpu card

[Imprevium]

<3 Zotac

[Umair]

Dem boxes, yo.  Haha, only kidding (well, I'm not) but either of them would look sweet in my rig  And GTX980 > HD7870, so there's also that.

[Obsidianpick9999]

I like how the 900 series is very power efficient and looks good while doing it, also the ZOTAC looks really cool

[PandaCruncher]

the Amp Extreme looks sweet 

[loves2pleaseLinus]

Why do I keep posting on stuff like this? I never win anyway...

 

But i realy like the buildquality and (almost) full metal design of the Omega one.

Only the thickness - i think it's a three slot desing, would make me wonder if it is usefull in a sli system...

But i'm more into single GF systems anyway.... Sooooo yeah...

[Brandogg255]

I reckon the Omega looks better with it metal but the extreme still looks cool with the carbon fibre

[Qritsu]

Omega looks super neat. Also the performance of these cards and series in general is quite amazing. Good job NVidia and Zotac!

[pavkata99]

sexy and fast

[Weta]

Yea! free stuff!

[DirtySHISNO]

Why two 8pins on a card that is supposed to be more efficient?

 

Whatever.

 

 

DAT LED on the card though

[mikebald]

Never considered purchasing a Zotac card before in the past; perhaps for my next purchase I'll have to keep them in mind.

[mmoff]

I really don't like the way the amp looks but the extreme looks sick!!!!

[Krash]

I'm ready for an upgrade so a Zotac GTX980 AMP would look pretty good in my Phantek. Linus you rule!!

[Guest taha78]

Its just looks AWESOME!!!

And fast too.

[Dockmaster]

These seem like awesome cards!  Pick me!

[Crazy_NRG]

The plastic carbon fibre looks pretty nice to me

ZOTAC sent us their two beastly editions of the GTX 970. These cards look pretty darn cool in our opinion, but do they overclock as well as their flashy design would suggest?

I'm liking the lower power consumption of the 900 series. It's a big step that we needed to take. Less E-Power for the same G-Power, on this big of a scale, is a step in the right direction.

[Demogoblin]

both coolers look 'cool' in their own ways......the omega looks more robust, but also looks like a delivery truck 

[bot_xavier]

Honestly, from my time around the web, the 970's are better rated than the 980's. The 70's have a way better power efficency whilst still delivering around the same FPS at the 980.

[Phothiabea]

I think it's really weird that this Nvida GPU Generation the more niche companys like Zotac, Gainward and Inno3D deliver better GPUs than the big ones like EVGA, MSI, Gigabyte and ASUS.

 

They're the only one who actually implemented the 3 DP, 1HDMI, 1DVI interface into their 970 as well (instead of the old 1DP, 1HDMI, DVI-I/DVI-D), give you great power delievery and much higher clockspeeds right of the box.

 

And I'm kinda torn right now between the Zotac ones, Asus Stix and Inno3d iChill with their new cooler.

[KnowNothingMan]

I like the back plate but I can see where it can cause major problems.

[Beni2000]

Wow, those cards are amazing!

[DinoWookie]

I've been watching linus tech tips for a couple of months now and I'm definitely going to be using a 980 on my new build, hopefully two! Build number 3 here we come.
