I've had problems with Gigabyte before. I may be unlucky since some people never had issues with them. I had issues with 2 motherboards and a graphics card. Their support is correct though. If you run in any problems they should be able to help you.

It depends on the card you picked from both companies. MSI's GTX970 GAMING Edition comes with a better cooler, and it is factory overclocked.

(Currently out of stock in my country)

Gigabyte's GAMING Edition though, runs cooler for some users. It also comes with slightly faster "stock" speeds.

The Gigabyte wins underload. Will you really see a difference though ? I don't think so. If there is a difference, it'll be something like 4 frames a second, but that's all.
