I may sound incompetent but why?

Why not go with more preformance then the 970 in just gaming

in terms of reliability/cooling and drivers nvidia is on par with AMD (though they got some hot cards *290*)

390 gets like  5 more fps in most games

 

but if you must i'd suggest EVGA, MSI, Gigabyte for 970's
