Hi guys. I am looking forward to get a gtx 970 this weekend. Either ASUS Strix edition or the MSI Gaming 4G edition. So, please suggest where I can buy one of these in Kolkata. Supreme only has the Zotac edition which I don't prefer and they don't have any plans to bring the ASUS or MSI edition in near future :-x. I will appreciate if you can notify me about the price as well.

Zotac card comes with a 2 year warranty with additional 3 years after registering with Zotac within 15 days of purchasing. So a 5 year warranty. Thats a +point of Zotac.

Thank you guys. I'm gonna buy the ASUS one that is shown available in Mdcomputer's website. On a different note, I have a gtx 550 ti as an existing graphics card which I want to use just for physx purposes, while other graphical processes are handled by the new gtx 970. Any suggestions on this matter? Selling the old gfx card is not an option for me. My current rig is in my signature.

You can use it as a physx card. 550 ti as a physx card is sure going to offload some works from the GTX 970 which will boost FPS.

Physx is Nvidia releated Games there are just arong 10-15titles currently i doubt you will be playing them... it wont make much of a difference just 4-5fps(with a 750-ti) on only physX games.... Its a downgrade on others acutally somtimes

I bought the ASUS strix OC version.
But the computer is showing the bios scrren before loading OS and then keeps restarting and repeating the whole sequence.
Need a little help here brothers.
Is any of my other components bottle-necking it?

either a dead card or your PSU isnt able to supply sufficient power.. Try that card in a separate computer

Ok...
I took it back to the shop.
They were able to make it work by changing the hard drive :shock:
According to them all I gotta do is format my HD and re-install everything.
Aaaaaaaaand somehow I changed my HD's default set-up (may be changed it from SATA to RAID-0 in BIOS) which I gotta re-roll to.
Will give an update as soon as I can get somewhere with it.

Basically Driver conflict, remove ur graphic card and connect ur old card and reset all resolution settings etc to 800x600 and then reconnect with ur new gc
