There is no “reference” GTX 970 theoretically, but Best Buy is selling one. Price is pretty competitive when on sale, $330.
No vapor chamber cooler, but still a solid, well-made card. No 0dB feature as I would have liked, but noise is minimal for a blower. I put my computer case on my desk about one foot away. Not bothered by its noise at all.
But has coil whine. Thought reference card would fare better.
