GTX 970M benchmark with FX-8370 1080p, 1440p, Ultrawide, 4K benchmarks at Medium Quality

In terms of cost, pricing clearly is a genuine issue here and the price of GTX 970M is simply ridiculous. With regards to max load temperature, the GTX 970M 's cooling is excellent at keeping it cool and under control. This combination between GTX 970M and AMD FX-8370 Eight-Core has less than 15% bottleneck in many games and can cause minor FPS loss. With current 3072 MB RAM, the GTX 970M can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.
