Hello, everyone.
R9 270x = 15200
R9 270 = 13800.
I was thinking if it is worth to spend 1400 extra on a overclocked card ? If i want extra performance i can always overclock R9 270. Which card i should buy . My config is 4GB ram,one HDD 5400 rpm,955 BE,Hyper TX3 cooler,M4A88T-MLE mobo. Thanks.

~6 to ~10 fps difference for 1400 IMO it is worth.

Maybe not the correct place to ask this..... But any idea what can my almost 2.5 years old Radeon 6970 2GB go for in the market? I really want to upgrade to a 970 :(

Guys, Planning to get a gtx970 but looking for ~26k.

Can I get a zotac gtx970 non over clocked?

What is the difference between this, Asus strix, zotac amp version in fps?

Can I over clock this card to get the performance near to any factory over clocked cards.

If I don't find zotac in local market can I get Asus strix any known issues?

Tagging [MENTION=15026]topgear[/MENTION] and [MENTION=110244]Nerevarine[/MENTION] for help.

Amp Extreme - Quiet fan for a high end card, already overclocked like a demon, good temperatures, 3+2 years warranty (if you register in the first week)..
Asus Strix - already overclocked a bit(not as much as amp extreme), Better VFM, 3 years warranty, Difference between Amp extreme and asus strix is about 6 fps in crysis 3..
Zotac Normal -Reference clock speed, Best VFM if you overclock slightly, but you will never reach Amp extreme levels without proper cooling, again 5 years warranty
IMO, go for the Zotac normal, Rs 5.8k more for 8-9 fps gains is definitely not worth it..
Performance wise:
Zotac Normal < ASUS Strix < Zotac Amp extreme < Zotac Amp Omega (not available in india)

You can check the reviews yourself on youtube (LinusTechTips)

PS: I myself dont know but you should find out how good Aditya Infotech is regarding zotac RMA.. for a 27k card, warranty is of vital importance and you should really be careful when choosing a brand..
But I can confirm ASUS warranty, atleast in my city is very good :D

^Thank you for the detailed reply. Offline stores say they dont have stock for any GTX 970. Dirty beggars trying to increase the demand :(

Congrats bro. Post a brief performance review
congratz [MENTION=127004]amjath[/MENTION] plz post benchmarks..........................
Congrats ;) Post couple of pics of the card and some info like how cool it runs.

Thx guys for everyone. I have played only for half an hour using the card, I have very limited time :( Can't enjoy either my new phone or my gfx card. When I find time I will post some snaps and benchmarks and snaps from the game.
 
I understand electronics here is insanely overpriced but when theirs a price drop even then the greedy suppliers don't lower the prices, its almost 1.5 months since amd dropped 290 to 300$ and 290x to 400$
When (or if? ) we'd be able to see this price drop in india, this is ruining my build plans, maybe nvidia should take all of their market shares by gtx 970 alone and then they will realize, "oops! Our cards were expensive like a hate story actress w#ôrë"
