Which one?

>>55913812
Assuming those are the only options for you:

There's next to no difference between the cards in terms of OC or cooling ability. Just go for the cheapest one.

>>55913812
No the MSI, since it's apparently not for gaming.

I would take the last, because it's not only G1 gaming, but extreme gaming, so you have the option to extreme game if you want.

MSI is the most quiet one

What the hell are those prices, I just bought a 1070 for that kind of money.

Buying GTX 970 over the R9 390

>>55914156
forgetting to yellow text

Also OP is talking GTX 970 specifically.

>>55914123
Uh, no, not even close. Gigacuck cards are the loudest around and their cooling performance doesn't justify it. I'll take the extra 3-4 degrees and do without the extra 7-8 decibels.

>>55914041
Im in canadia and even the 970 is frequently under 400 monopoly monies

>>55914041
Aud and Cad are basically the same value right now. But overseas/GST fuck us over

RX480. Same performance for a lower price.

Would a 2500K bottleneck any of these?

>>55914041
Monopoly money?

>>55913812
>AUD
trade in to a real currency first

>>55914179

Lol. Check out the overlooking results in guru3d, computer base and Tom's. Heck check all of them.

The gigabyte g1s are beaten by the hybrid or extreme cards. That's it.

Even the 1080 g1 with just one 8pin oc to the same level as the super high End.

>>55914229
Will depend on what you're playing.
In a lot of cases, you'll probably be fine.

Are you overclocking that 2500K?

>>55913812
r9 390

>>55914445
Just get a 290X unless you're certain you need the additional VRAM. They're the same chip, though the 390 has slightly better power delivery. If you aren't overclocking, there's little reason to go for a 390.

>>55914392
I've got it sitting at 4.3 but I have a 212 so I can probably push it to 4.6. Just want it to play generic AAA games for as long as I can. I just don't want to spend the money on a 1070 and have my CPU choke the shit out of it.

>>55914620
You're competing with current gen high-end i5s and some i7s, then. You're probably good to go.

>>55914665
Thank you friend.

>>55913812
Just get a 1060 since it performs better

>>55913812
MSI is your best bet it has a cute kitty kat.

>>55913990
This... This my friends, is someone who doesn't get the joke.

>>55913812

>>55913904
Yes there are
Binned chips and the xtreme is an amazing cooler
Msi one is shit
The gaming x is nice though, the new twin frozr cooler

>>55918219

>msi great cards

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

>>55913812
My 960 G1 Gaming stayed cool and quiet but overclocked far worse than I expected. If the MSI has the stop fan feature I would go with the cheapest.
