EVGA's GPU Clock Types: Which is better?

[SilkyJohnston]

I've been researching around PCPartPicker for EVGA's GTX 970-980 series and I've lowered it to these GPUs with differing clocking styles.

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-04gp42977kr (Superclocked+ ACX 2.0)

 

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-04gp43978kr (FTW+ ACX 2.0+)

 

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-04gp42983kr (Superclocked ACX 2.0)

 

So, based on experience, which is the better EVGA card I can rely the most of the four??

 

Note that I'm saving up to just $500 usd for one of these. For reference, my current rig to attach any of these is radically different for most enthusiast's taste.

 

Please help.

FTW is EVGA's top of the line OC cards, only beaten by Classified and Kingpins

I would go with either of the ACX 2.0+ (notice the +) models. Why? Mainly to gain the additional DisplayPort outputs.

No idea why you considering a 970 when you can get a 980

In the event of Bethesda finalizing DOOM's official PC specs, whatever happens on those four days of Beta testing could result in keeping the GTX 970 as the official recommended video card or bumping up to the 980 or worse, 980Ti.
