Customers are saying

Customers admire the GeForce GTX 970 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card's performance, graphics capabilities, and relatively quiet operation. Many appreciate its ease of installation and good price point, although some found the card's size to be a drawback. Concerns were also raised regarding the card's memory capacity and its effective use of available memory. Overall, the positive feedback on performance and ease of use outweighs the negative comments about size and memory limitations.

    I do really enjoy this video card but I can not turn up all the features on my games etc like many were suggesting. I was easy to install and has great features like ShadowPlay (where you can record your games). It automatically updates drivers and runs quite well. I am happy with the card over all but it will not handle full on settings for all video games. The PRICE for this card was Amazingly low compared to cards in the same category.

    I purchased this card for an upgrade from my gtx 660. All I can say is WOW! If you want an outstanding card for gaming grab this beast. After buying this card, you won't need to upgrade for several years. It is well worth the money!

    Great quality graphics, card comes with its own fan to help keep it cool, and runs games and multiple programs simultaneously easily.

    A huge upgrade from my old Radeon card. Easy to install just make sure your case is big enough for it. Let's me run with everything on in batman arkham knight (which was free with this purchase at the time) and world of Warcraft.

    I think of all the cards I've had this is the highest performing, I have so far complaints in relation to it and it works perfectly on my monitor 4k, I think would recommend 100% to anyone who wants optimum performance in its PC.

    Bought the 970 after reading reviews that the 980 was only slightly better. Made the right choice. Able to game perfectly at ultra settings with no lag or anything.

    I've researched a lot before purchasing this one and am very satisfied. The only problem I had with it was I needed to buy a DVI-HDMI to connect my second monitor. I thought there was 2 DVIs but must have gotten mixed up with the MSI version. Nonetheless this is capable up to 4 monitors using display ports that I don't expect to use in the near future. Besides having to buy a cable for $22, this thing is a GREAT BUY!! Can't beat the 3-year warranty... unless you find one with lifetime of course. =P

    Great card!!! I am sure I will be needing another card sometime in the future, as that technology just keeps jumping by leaps and bounds, but this one should keep me future-proofed for a few years.

    After purchasing 2 of these cards, I was quite surprised seeing a backplate on both of the cards. I know there are better cards out there. But, these I enjoyed the most. The green logos which lit up and these are in stock(most stores). My only complaint is most stores only have one in stock. After checking online at the local bestbuy store in Forsyth Illinois. I went up to the store to purchase my second card. A guy said they have it in stock so I waited patiently for him to arrive back from the back after checking on the computer he then verified it was here somewhere?? Well he came back empty handed. I was told by the employee that it shows it in stock and in the computer database they have one but he couldnt find it. He next said that there is a problem people stealing at the store, I honestly dont know if he told me that to get rid of me but I told him, me talking to the manager wouldnt do me any good. Seems to me they have issues at that particular store. I did how ever order it online and had no other issues.

    This video made me start using my computer again ever since I upgraded from a 1gb card. The difference in quality and effects is very noticeable. No need to go any higher in memory for awhile.

    This unit has not skipped a beat, any games we've thrown at it, has not had any issues at all. Great that is works with a lower powered power supply and fit well in our mid tower case.

    My son uses this daily for gaming and engineering graphics/3d printing designs. It is dependable and better at the design work than many industrial products out there.

    Bought this to replace GTX670. Was originally looking at GTX970 from other manufacturers, but they didn't look as solidly made. I believe this card uses the same components as the GTX980, which it can just about match when overclocked. I game at 1080p and can run everything with just about maxed out settings at very playable frame rates. There are better cards out there, but I think this fits the price to performance "sweet spot" very nicely.

    From a performance standpoint this card is awesome.The Ge-force GTX 970 is carved out of the 28 NM GM204 silicon the GTX 980 is based on, however you pay a lot less.
