ASUS GTX970 Strix Review
3D Mark Vantage

3D Mark Vantage
Experience has taught us that you can't judge the performance of a product based upon its capabilities in 3D Mark Vantage. However, it's worth noting that the Strix is just a hairs breadth below the GTX980, and that the overclock has significantly improved the score.

Spot on timing there tom, just got home from the gym an grabbed a cuppa hahaQuote
This was the 970 I ideally wanted but couldn't be arsed waiting for stock so I ordered the MSI instead.
The improvements over the old DCUII are good, I love how this card (as do many of the other 970s) runs passive up to 60*c. People have been getting some good overclocks from these Strix cards as well, 1853mhz is pretty high and I wouldn't be surprised if we see 2000mhz with a custom BIOS in the future.Quote

Damn Guv! Nicely done, what's not to like it's a cracking card, that power draw is staggering, nVidia has nailed it with Maxwell, AMD has some serious work to do to rival this.Quote
I've been waiting for this generation of cards to upgrade from my 2 water cooled 7950s and this looks like the card to go for. Great out of the box performance and decent overclocking too. I think I'll be picking up two of these for cruising through 1440p and I notice that on coolingconfigurator the EK-FC670 GTX DCII GPU block looks like it may well fit...Quote
Dammit! I just bought the GTX760 Striker for my Hero build. I was going to buy a second but now there is the Strix 970 at about the same price. Time to start over and see about getting a 970 or 980 and then a second one (facepalm) !!!!!Quote
