I used ASUS 970 Strix. The build quality is probably one of the best if not the best, and the PCB surface is very smooth. It also uses the updated power components and has a huge fan. It is also complete silent when you are not gaming. I highly recommend the Strix line from ASUS.

Have you purchased one? As of today, RX 480 is the best choice at around $249-$225. It absolutely kills it especially when it comes to future proofing for DX 12 games with Async Compute. RX480 performance virtually ties with Geforce GTX 980.
970 SSC- just got my new one yesterday. It runs every game at 1080p 60fps+, (every game ive tried so far.) That would be DayZ, Arma 3, CS:GO, Rocket League, Minecraft+Shaders, H1Z1, Dead by Daylight. Those are some examples or games i have tried so far and the card has been amazing

GTX 1060. The 970 SSC is still a beast though, but the 1060 will be more future proof with more VRAM

If you must purchase a 970 then go with the EVGA GTX 970 SSC https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Cooling-Graphics-0... but like everyone else said, getting the 1060 or RX 480 would be a better option unless you're getting one of the 970's for almost nothing.
