GFX card upgrade

suppafly · 2015-04-03 00:53:01

Have narrowed it down to these two cards. Just trying to figure out which one i should get and if there is much of a difference. I currently have a gigabyte GTX 280. http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GeForce-Gaming-GDDR5-Graphics/dp/B00NH5T1MS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1428007162&sr=8-2&keywords=geforce+gtx+970…

I have a pair of the Gigabytes myself. It's probably the best in terms of power/cooling for 970's but it's quite large (a bit over 12 inches long). The EVGA card is only 9.5 inches long so it will easily fit most cases.
