Hi all, just curious about the Asus GTX 970 Turbo vs GTX 970 Strix, how big is the performance difference, because the price difference is quite big where i'm from.

Thanks

At this price point you would be better going for the 390 from AMD if possible (depends on your current PSU).

 

This is mainly due to having better performance than the 970 and also having a lot more VRAM which also isn't slower at the last 0.5GB.

CPU: i7 8700k   Motherboard: Asus Maximus Hero  RAM: 16GB @ 3600Mhz  GPU: MSI 980Ti 6G  Case: Fractal Design R5 (4 Intakes/3Exhausts)  Storage: Crucial BX100 SSD, Samsung 850 & Seagate 2TB HDD  PSU: Seasonic M12II Evo '850W'  CPU Cooling: Corsair H110i GT

Probably depend on how well either cards can overclock and cooling performance. I'll just say this, if you're getting a 970, get a G1. 

i5 2400 | ASUS RTX 4090 TUF OC | Seasonic 1200W Prime Gold | WD Green 120gb | WD Blue 1tb | some ram | a random case

If you want to overclock, the STRIX aren't a very good option.

CPU: Ryzen 1600X @ 4.15ghz  MB: ASUS Crosshair VI Mem: 32GB GSkill TridenZ 3200
GPU: 1080 FTW PSU: EVGA SuperNova 1000P2 / EVGA SuperNova 750P2  SSD: 512GB Samsung 950 PRO

In that case you'd get a Free-Sync monitor.

And to be honest its not even needed if you optimize the game right.
