Ever since my MSI's GPU went all cooky-lackoo after an official Nvidia driver update, i managed to gain a refund on the product from the Dabs retailer now i'm looking for their next Gen cards with Maxwell, its gonna be good, FL in 4K! (only a possibility)
Although, I've come into a slight problem, or dilemma, whatever way you want to put it
As known, Nvidia itself barely makes their own GPU's so most of us end up going for Non-reference cards.
So here i am, a path that goes in god-knows-how-many directions.
Now there is only a few regulations set:

• I'm not willing to buy any other GPU so its restricted to the 970 series.
  
• I am not willing to buy from Palit, Zotac or PNY.
  
• It can only be purchased from this online retailer: Dabs
  
• The range of purchase must be BELOW £280
  
• Give me a recommendation of UK ice cream, its not restricted to the Magnum range, although, its my preferred range.
  

Now, may all hell break loose.

Edit: Forgot about the retailer link, here are all avalible GTX970 on my preferred retailer: http://www.dabs.com/category/components-...-505120000

asus all the way

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduc...oC0aHw_wcB

near enough on price

i have a full asus rog rig. has never let me down

EDIT: just seen the bit about the retailer

still go for asus every time

if you can get a dual-cooled or full cover water cooled one, even better

http://www.dabs.com/products/asus-geforc...970&src=16

found a dual cooled one. worth the little extra

very good build quality

there's a reason it has a 5 star rating on the site

also: ben & jerrys or haagen daas

For Nvidia GPUs, the best brand is EVGA. MSI and ASUS are good alternatives as well.

ITS DONE, OVER, BOUGHT.
EVGA GTX970 FTW EDITION.
DON'T LIKE IT, TOO BAD.
ITS FOR THE CUSTOMER SERVICE.
COMPLAIN, AND I'LL DRAG YOU TO MY BEDROOM FOR A FUN TIME!
