Yea. You'd at least need the same type of card. Another 970. It could be any manufacturer though.

Although that might change with Direct X 12. Not really sure.

If I want to SLI my card, do I need the exact same card?

If so, you may need to hold onto that one for me until my birthday... next year.
It does not need to be the exact same 970 to SLI.

Nvidia is fussy, you'll need the same GPU, manufacturer, and model.
Usually each manufacturer has at least 2, the 'base' that is as from Nvidia but with their brand cooler and another that has a custom circuit-board design.

Edit: it appears they have gone lax with the most recent Gen?

A PNY and EVGA (and insert brand here) will work no problem together. so long as its the same clock and memory it has no issues.

The listed price (adjusted a few times) is about as low as I can go (factor shipping and paypal fees).

Damn good deal... Wish I saw this before buying my 980 Ti cards.

Do you sell any other hardware? :D

From time to time I have random hardware. Mind, you this is not my job.

May have a few things coming in the next month or so.

Price Dropped down to 275 shipped (US48). There is nothing on the market for this price and performance, let alone new, like this.

Final Price drop on a final card.

Well I forgot to list this local so a final bump before I force this to local. The better half wants it done.

When you run SLI the cards will clock themselves to the primary cards values. So if you use a SSC in the first slot and a el-cheapo in the second slot, they will both match the super super clock'd one in the primary slot. Vice versa as well, so, you can keep them at the lower values too. Which is recommended actually, if you are continually under heavy load.

Hey Russian, If this is still available for that $275 I am 100% down; thing is I live in Canada. I would be more then willing to pick up the shipping and any duties.

Thanks man!

EDIT: Had $225 instead of $275, haha, my bad!

Replied to messages. This delay is what I get for going to vacation.

There is one left as it stands. Working out the details now.

Hey guys,

Got my hands on a few GTX 970s that are up for sale at a nice discount for members. These are EVGA Superclocked cards with ACX coolers so a decent uptick over stock speeds and cooler.

Cards are $275 shipped to US48, that being a $30 or so discount over every other 970 I see on the market and no rebates to worry about.

Grab a good card before it goes local, its a NEW card for less than some used card prices.
Russian, Thanks so much for putting up an offer like this for TESTies! (I had to get a replacement laptop in order to finish thesis since the old one had a bad hard drive fail. So that personally set the timeline back on me purchasing parts for desktop. :( )

I will absolutely vouch for his integrity, product quality, and general awesomeness!! :D
