im gonna buy one of these cards but im struggling to decide, since i give weight to noise level and power consumption which one is the better or best. i know gtx 970 has better performance than gtx 960 4g but gtx 970 is not futureproof so i decided to buy a graphic card that will be my transtition card, in 2 or 3 years then i'll buy a better card than 900series. evga claims that there is no fan work in idle temp. at evga gtx970 sc so, i think there might be a slight chance power consumption of these cards are similar or evga has beaten gtx960. so there is the noise level problem. i read some comments about evga gtx 970 sc has some jet engine level noise problems in that forum. then i watched some videos about it and nobody was complained about it except its coil whine problem. is there a really jet engine noise level problem at evga's? try to consider there is no coil whine, will it be a annoying noise level differences between those cards. thanks in advance for your answers
