The 970 is an overkill for the 1366*768 and i talk through Experience.
960's the best u can get. And on a personal note I would recommend a ASUS strix or the zotac amp!

Overkill can be understood as to use a powerful machine(graphics card in this case) with a machine that wont be able to exploit its full power.
It will be like attaching an old woman with a Bugatti though she will not even go above 30 kph.

The normal zotac edition is the normal gtx 960 and the amp edition is an Oc'ed version which sports a higher clock frequency than the base card.
Also it looks beautiful
