The best out of the 970's ?

What do you think is the best card out of all the 970's out there? I want to upgrade my pc soon, at the moment the specs say it's the EVGA 970 FTW+. But what do you think?

The R9 390 might be a better bet if you have a good CPU like a unlocked skylake i5 or i7 and plan on playing in higher resolutions:

Though if you have a older CPU or sticking with 1080p for a long time a good overclocked 970 is still good.

I own the Evga 970 FTW+ and I haven't had a single problem with it, can play pretty much anything and record/stream at 1080p 60 fps

 

and I haven't touched the overclock from factory as of yet

So 390 is not good with for example i5 4670k?

If you overclock it well it will be fine I guess, haven't seen enough benchmarks though.

Best GTX 970 if we don't care about budget constraints? Probably the Gigabyte Xtreme Gaming.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.
