[HumbleRumble]

[dzajapn]

[NejiFist]

gitty gitty goo

[kittykingdom]

Looks beast! Will I be able to fly if I strap it on my back? Or do i need SLI? >.<

[Stew360]

The card youre about the giveaway as a beasty look , i really like the LED and seams to performs as well almost as a 780 but with the bonus of the DSR and MFAA so its a pretty sweet card 

[LeChef]

it's a bit too much "gamer blingy" when i look at the cards but I guess one can get used to it

[Cloud09]

Thanks for the videos Linus I'vs been watching your channel for a while and when the giveaway came up, I thought well now is a good time to jump on the forum and have a chance to win a new video card! The carbon finish on the Extreme looks smick!

 

Thanks

I think that the 900 series is the most promising line of gpu's for the average and enthusiast consumer we've seen in a long time...

[Im Gunz]

That carbon fiber on the AMP Omega edition looks really nice.

[giorgi1997]

Too bad my rig just broke

[Kalevi]

Looks amazing and extremely powerful

[Dewst3r]

This certainly seems like the beast of the pack. Those Leds are a mixed bag for people going with a blue style. I like that plastic shroud that has a nice nice look to it

[dan93329332]

Personally Ii think the extreme edition looks the best by far. way better than the reference card.

[leyjay]

What I think what's cool about the card? It's friggin fast and looks pretty darn cool! I want one

[SimonZinzovski]

None of the aftermarket cooler deigns look that good for the 970 IMO, but it's a freaking tank of a card so I still love it <3

[Frozen_Ships]

I mean sure I just bought a second 280X for CrossFire, but hell Linus give me a  reason to regret my purchase. 

 

Also Alien cooler is the best cooler.

[YadJomhur]

This card is the best looking I've seen, the LEDs are fantastic, and the bit hanging looks alot better than the old windforce ones.

[MantasFX]

I like that the new 900 cards are way more power efficient, so they can run much quieter than 700 series.

[Ephruz]

Favorite thing about the 900 series in general? Power/Performance.

Lets contextualize how amazing this series is. A GTX 660 has a 140W TDP. 660s in dual SLI, from what I've seen in researched benchmarks, perform at about the level of a 780, which is slightly above (or in these cards' cases, even with) the GTX 970. We're talking a low single digit % difference. A single GTX 970 has a higher TDP by only 5W, meanwhile 660s in dual SLI have a 280W TDP.

 

In two generations, NVIDIA was able to increase the amount of performance you get out of around 140W of power by approximately 90%. Not only does this mean the cards use significantly less power for the performance you're getting, but they can run quieter, cooler, last longer, and base/OC clock speeds on the higher end cards are able to be as high, or even higher, than not only previous high-end NVIDIA cards, but any graphics card before it.

 

The price only reinforces the cost effectiveness.
