Zotac 970 vs others?

[Nineshadow]

It's the basic Zotac 970, no AMP Omega no anything.

Here's a newegg link : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500362

How does it compare to other manufacturers' implementation? Is a Windforce one worth the $50 more, for example?

I'd just go for the one that looks the best/is the cheapest, they're all within ~5fps of each other, which is insignificant in the grand scheme of things.

 

Besides, you can still liquid cool all of them.

I think it should hold up on stock clocks, you probably can't get as good OC from it though. And I agree with @tomlambert01. Going for the cheapest one is a good idea.

This was the cheapest I could find here. 

I also gotta say it fits my build almost perfectly lol.

I mean gtx 970 runs in those tiny itx versions I don't see how this could be bad.

I like Zotac. I think you should get it as its like $50 cheaper than the rest

I have one and it has worked perfectly for me so far. I overclocked mine to 1400 MHz and stopped without really pushing it as far as will go. The reason I got this Zotac is because it was the cheapest one I could find in stock at the time and It has yet to disappoint me.
