I have always preferred Nvidia instead of AMD graphics. I had to upgrade my graphics card, and for the price it was excellent. I would buy it again, but the GTX 980 instead, why? Just to have one of the latest graphics card from Nvidia.

I can't ask for more for the price. At one point this video card was over $600 and I purchased it for $379. As usual with technology, always something new will come out, but for the money its more than expected.

This is a great card and plays everything I throw at it. Even the new BatMan game has its flaws this card made it look gorgeous. I just need to get a new power supply and I can get another one in SLI.

Im running dual SLI on this card and the performance surpassed a single GTX 980 6GB Ti. Im glad I went this route instead of a single 980.

Whoo this thing is a vast improvement over my previous card (GT 520) So I bought this on a whim after replacing my power supply that just went out. It was on sale one hundred dollars off. Anyways this thing was easy to install. Thankfully my new psu had two 8 pin connectors because this beast needed both of them. This thing maxes every game i own at 1080p. (Gta V not so much) If you are in line for a graphics card and with the recent release of the 1070 you will get a great deal.

I've been building computers for 15 years now, and if you had told me as recently as 5 years ago that I would buy a 4K-capable video card for less than $400, I'd have laughed at you. My particular use is video editing, and the CUDA cores in this card make it possible to edit almost entirely without rendering. This card does more than a card I paid $3000 for just six years ago, and that is amazing.

I love this video card! I can play everything I throw at it. It can play the new COD Advanced Warfare at 60 FPS 2K. I choose this card over the 980. This card serves my high end needs well.

This card was a part of a major upgrade prompted by a motherboard failure. The upgrade gave me an amazing boost to my system. The graphics now are detailed and do everything I need. I did run into problems with Falout 4 that I believe involve the card.

After reading several reviews and lots of research, research, research - this was the best option for what I was looking to spend. According to the reviews it is similar to the 980 model which costs a couple hundred more dollars. The 970 paired with my solid state drive boost my computer to new levels, where multi cam editing is a breeze and look forward to shooting some 4K footage and see how it handles in another week!

When building my new PC I was wanting to go with one of the newer 980's but the one I really wanted wasn't released yet so I decided to give this card a go. I have to say I am very impressed with the GPU's performance over any game I have tried, although I am not an FPS person on my PC I do play them with my kids on the PS4 because that's what they like to play. I am honestly glad I held out on purchasing a 980 at the time because of the newer versions being released are just making I made the right choice.

Very impressed. Great bang fur the $$, especially if caught on sale, for sub 4k gaming. Runs everyrhing I've tried at max/ultra including Witcher 3 on an old p35 quad core rig, Bought me a little more time for that next system upgrade.

Great Card But Not What Was Advertised.

Don't get me wrong the 970 is a great graphics card and it's going to run everything maxed out on whatever game you throw at it. However Nvidia misrepresented the 4GB of memory that this card has. Yes it's there but part of it is locked out and while that doesn't seem to be a huge deal for many it is for hardcore PC gamers. There aren't many 4GB cards available and poorly ported console games are making it necessary. This card locking you at 3.5GB was a no go. I returned the card and had no issues with customer service. I'll keep using my 750TI until the next gen graphics cards are out.
