Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the GeForce GTX 970 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card's performance, especially its ability to deliver high frame rates and excellent visuals at various resolutions. Many also praise the card's quiet operation, ease of installation, and good value for the price. However, some users mention needing a sufficiently powerful power supply and note potential issues with heat and coil whine in certain instances. A small number of users also point out limitations related to the card's memory capacity.

    I upgraded my graphics card solely to improve rendering time with apps like After Effects and this card did the trick. I upgraded from a GT 720 plus I had to upgrade my power supply. Changing out the parts was very simple though I. recommend getting a modular power supply for less hassle with cords.

    No need for a 980 card. This little performs at the same specs with the extra $300 price difference. Plays Arkham Knight, GTA V, and everything in between.

    Sure it's expensive, however it isn't the most expensive. Combined with my cpu, this graphics card runs all the games I have better than my previous card.

    If you want to play games and not have to worry about falling into the glitchy nether realm that we set aside for the console peasents. Get this.

    Wanted to try some new tech, saw this and took a chance. It was a pretty good upgrade from my 660GTX, plus the free copy of The Division didn't hurt.

    I was looking for a major upgrade in a graphics card from my old 2 gb and for the most part this card has done well. Unfortunately, there is one demanding game I have that crashes it out and that has been disappointing. But with all others it has performed up to expectations.

    Best GPU out there for your budget

    Now if you're looking at GPUs, you probably know what they are. Let's assume you're aware the NVIDIA 1080/70s are out and the 60 was announced. If you can't wait for a GTX 1060 for $250, get this 970. Keep in mind the 1060 is a better performing and cheaper card, but stock for the 1060 more than likely won't meet demand for quite some time. GTX 970s are great cards and are basically the standard for high settings on games right now.

    Good card for most games on high/ultra settings. Drivers come out quick for new games. With new cards coming this year, wait. You will get this card really cheap in a couple months.gtx 1070 will be this price at release. Under 400.00. Now this card is around 200.00
