Is it fast?
This card will play games like Far Cry 4, The Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid V, Fallout 4, and Doom at a consistently high FPS. When you push the resolution up to 4K the FPS will generally hover around 30-40 depending on your other hardware. It’s faster than the Radeon 290x and approximately the same speed as both the Titan Black and GTX 780ti. It has similar performance to a GTX 980 at 1080, but with a 4-10 FPS difference at 4K.
Is it reliable?
My card was purchased at the beginning of December and it has gone through well over a thousand hours of strenuous gaming. The only issue it has had was some minor flickering in Photoshop that was resolved by reverting to the previous drivers. Usually a defective card would show some symptoms by this point. The other cards I have purchased from EVGA lasted years and you can bet that this one will too.
Is it quiet?
You will find this card to be blissfully silent 99% of the time, but when the fans start they are unbearably loud. The fans start when your card reaches a set temperature, which you can customize if you wish the fans to remain off. If you wish to have the fans on, then you still have the option of lowering the fan speed to reduce noise. This card also has no coil whine, which means you have less noise while you play.
Is it worth the money?
It’s as fast or faster than similarly priced cards, made by an excellent brand, has temperature based fans for silent gaming, and is likely to last until your next upgrade. The fans can be noisy by default, but it allows you to customize them. There are driver issues, but you can choose the drivers that work for you. The lower tier cards are cheaper, but they won’t run your games as well. The higher tier cards aren’t necessary unless you want to run 4K. This card is worth the money. You can safely level-up your computer and play quietly for several thousand hours on the highest settings.
Well my 2nd card arrived about 2 1/2 weeks ago. As I was saying in the above paragraph... I am ALWAYS craving more! Since I am a rig building, power hungry, wirenut junky I decided to go ahead and change up everything. New chassis, new MOBO, new DDR4 ram, new PSU, new and bigger ssds and a new sound card. Like I said... I'm a POWER hungry, wirenut junky! This time I decided to go Intel. I had no choice really. My FX-9590 Vishera is as big as I can go with AMD until their new chip hits the market sometime late next year. Although I am an avid AMD fan I can not wait til late next year to go big. I want to go big RIGHT NOW! I am not a prejudice rig builder. I might lean a little more toward the AMD side of things but that doesn't mean I hate Intel, As a matter of fact I love Intel. They are a good company whos processors deliver a crazy punch. They just happen to be a little on the expensive side. Because of that I had to work extra hard to be able to afford this build. All of the extra hard work that I put into this rig caused me to be more cautious than usual. When you are spending a crazy amount of money on a build, you make sure that you are getting exactly what you want and nothing less. I'm not gonna into detail about the specs of my latest build. This review isn't about my gaming rig as a whole, it's about the 970 GTXssc Gaming ACX 2.0 graphics card.
Let me tell ya... By itself this card is a bad ass! Especially if you pair it with a decent processor and a fair amount of ram! Every game I through at the card would run near perfect frame rates on ultra settings. The only time that I ran into trouble is when I decided to go to 4K or UHD res. When making the 4K jump there was a significant difference in what I was able to set my games at. Running games at 4k res on ultra settings was out of the question. Usually I was able to go half and half (half of the settings on ultra and the other half on either high or medium). This was a heart breaker for me and its what literally kicked me in the butt and set me in motion by a 2nd 970 and eventually to upgrade my whole set-up. On my old AMD FX-9590 set-up, the extra 970 exceeded my expectations! I immediately was able to tell a difference! Usually when playing Witcher 3 on 4Kres the game automatically sets itself to run with over half of the graphics settings on medium, 2-3 on high and 1 or 2 of them on ultra... With my rig running SLI GTX 970s The Witcher 3 automatically set itself to run with EVERYTHING on ultra settings... AT 4K RES!!! I'll say it again... EVERYTHING on ultra!!! And when I actually played The Withcer 3 at 4Kres on "all ultra" settings... Complete gaming nirvana!!! The game and every other game after that played wonderfully. Every one of them saw 50-60fps with zero stuttering, screen tears or glitches. So why did I decide to totally build a new rig if my games were running at 4Kres, 60fps and zero errors? Because I want to be ready for the future. Keep in mind that I was running an almost outdated AMD FX-9590 CPU, and although DDR3 ram is affordable and sufficient enough to power even the best gaming rigs... DDR4 is eventually gonna be the set standard.
When it comes to gaming rigs, technology always seems to be one, two and sometimes three steps ahead. With my new rig I know that I am future proofed for at least the next 4 years. The "Next Gen" games that are being developed are ridiculous and I know that they are gonna require "Next Gen" rigs to run them. I didn't get into PC gaming so that I could play games at the half way mark. I got into PC gaming so that I could experience games at their best! Anything less would defeat the purpose of owning a gaming rig. It's like buying a sports car. You don't buy a sports car to drive to church. You buy a sports car to experience the thrill of going fast! If I wanted to play video games at the half way mark I would buy a console. (Although I have to admit that consoles are beginning to look pretty damn good).
In conclusion I would like to say that the EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB SSC GAMING ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card does everything that it says it will, but if you want to experience it for what it is worth, you better have a rig to match! If you really want to kick it up a notch and experience PC gaming at its best... Buy 2 of these bad boys and get ready for one helluva gaming experience!!! Do the research and you will see that 2 of these cards respectfully outperform a TitanX Black! That is a BIG DEAL considering the price gap between two 970s and one TitanX Black! Seriously... I highly recommend getting two of these vs. one. If you wanna stick with a single GPU I suggest that you maybe look at the 980. It cost a little more, but with games constantly getting better, having a 980 will set you up for future "Next Gen" titles and allow to experience 4K res without any hick-ups. If you aren't worried about 4K res then by all means go with the 970. My 970 would successfully run all of my games on ultra settings at 1080i, 60fps with ease!

+Great card, Very Powerful for the money (at the time of creation)
+Good cooler on this particular model!
+Very fast and QUIET fan!
Compare en internet y esta tarjeta iguala el performance de la gtx980ti y a menor costo.
5 meses usandola, sin problemas, the witcher 3, doom 4, darksouls III y rise of the tom raider, batman, arkham knight, elder scrolls online, shadow of mordor, todos en promedio de 60fps, ninguno llega a los 70, pero no bajan de los 55, no se calienta, no hace ruido y si lo hace no lo notas jugando (lei que otras marcas de esta tarjeta hace bastante ruido, en especial asus y zotac, pero es por el dise;o de los disipadores, asi que todo mundo sugiere la evga por que ella no hace ruido)
excelente tarjeta, la compre cuando estaba en 250dls y el dolar estaba en 18 pesos, si algun dia la ves en oferta no dudes en comprarla, es la tarjeta que te dara mayor rendimiento por peso.
This was the exact upgrade required to bring Mel Gibson's Safari and Microprose's Darklands to their glorious full 8-bit colour. It's like an LSD trip seeing that much colour in these video games; I'll never be able to go back to my 3dfx Monster Banshee now.
Pros: Mel Gibson's Safari looks great and doesn't have any choppy frames; I'm sure that it will play other games smoothly!
Cons: Fairly high price for the performance point this card hits.
