Hey.
I bought the GTX 970 AMP Extreme as a replacement for my old 570 GTX SSC.
In the current market overview to me the map of Zotak has best presented,
because the price is high, but the performance and service are reasonable contrast.
I ordered because of the price and availability not from Amazon, but at a different online store.
Currently runs the pick-your-Path campaign, through which one gets to its GTX 970 optionally Far Cry 4, Assassins Creed Unity, or the Department to do so. The offer I missed.
Who buys the card, they should register for the purpose of a free warranty extension right after your purchase at Zotac.
General:
The card acts already when unpacking large-sized, and processed dibasic.
It acts by no means as "China-scrap".
The design of the card itself also pleases me very well, though I can not see anyway for lack of side windows.
Installation is as easy / difficult as with other graphics cards, in smaller cases, it could be quite narrow, however, since the card but is quite long - there should be remeasured definitely before!
Power:
The performance is -especially compared to my old GTX 570- "extremely" well.
In connection with my Xeon 1231 I can thus be current titles like Battlefield 4, Arma III, Skyrim etc. run on maximum settings with ease.
Especially Arma 3 benefits greatly from larger video memory.
Benchmarks I have not got at hand, however, the subjective impression of her performance is more than adequate.
Far enough resources are also available for Shadowplay still left to take in a reasonable quality.
Volume:
The volume of the fans, I feel both under load and in idle (or desktop) operating as a barely audible,
since making my case fans make more noise.
The graphics card remains in my system by the way very cool, as would be even more clearly room for overclocking.
As I respond extremely sensitive to Spulenfiepen ('m so 2 GTX 570 can go back) I had therefore only concerns, however, with the GTX 970, I can not perceive the slightest noise.
Conclusion:
I am extremely happy with the card, and has been able to detect any defects.
Priced I have currently but to recommend only to perform a price comparison.
