The GTX 780 received a very large price drop, the Asus Poseidon being 10$ more the the new Asus Strix GTX 970. Which one will give better performance, as an extra 10$ is worth paying to get better performance. So which one is better?

Gtx 780 will suport DirectX12

"In addition, NVIDIA will match Microsoft OS support for DX12. Over 70% of gaming PCs are now DX11 based. NVIDIA will support the DX12 API on all the DX11-class GPUs it has shipped; these belong to the Fermi, Kepler and Maxwell architectural families. With more than 50% market share (65% for discrete graphics) among DX11-based gaming systems, NVIDIA alone will provide game developers the majority of the potential installed base. - See more at: http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2014/03/20/directx-12/#sthash.j4wdk63i.dpuf"
