Just got my Gigabyte 970 Windforce with the factory overclock and ran Furmark benchmark (6479) wow it is a lot quieter than I thought it would be under full load. I had to get right next to the computer to hear it. Temps were stable at 71 C with fan going 72%. Would recommend

Seems like some people are having better luck with coil whine with the 1.1 rev.

I have the 1.1 rev which I bought from newegg last week and no coil whine at all. I think with how quickly they have been going out of stock chances are if you buy from now on you will get a 1.1 rev card.

I got really excited for the new dragon age game but as it turns out my four or so year old computer with crossfire AMD 6950s is slow as poo poo, and chugs even on low quality. Anyone have tweaks I can do, or at least what a decent budget card these days is?

Tweaks won't help you, you need a faster card. Here is the new Dragon age benchmarked http://www.techspot.com/review/921-dragon-age-inquisition-benchmarks/ with lots of different card and 3 resolutions.

This is funny I click on the link and it is in stock then click back to this thread and back to the link and it is out of stock.

Not buying one just thought the timing was funny.

Sweet the new version of MSI Afterburner works properly with Windows 10 TP before I had to manually start it to get the overclock.

Well my Gigabyte 970 release day G1 card started to start to whine in cycles the other day but some canned dust cleaner on the fans stopped that. Just letting others know the value of dust cleaner.
