Introducing the EVGA GeForce GTX 960 SuperSC ACX 2.0+
The EVGA GeForce GTX 960 delivers incredible performance, power efficiency, and gaming technologies that only NVIDIA Maxwell technology can offer. This is the perfect upgrade, offering 60% faster performance and twice the power efficiency of previous-generation cards*. Plus, it features VXGI for realistic lighting, support for smooth, tear-free NVIDIA G-SYNC technology, and Dynamic Super Resolution for 4K-quality gaming on 1080P displays.
The new EVGA ACX 2.0+ cooler brings new features to the award winning EVGA ACX 2.0 cooling technology. A Memory MOSFET Cooling Plate (MMCP) reduces MOSFET temperatures up to 11°C, and optimized Straight Heat Pipes (SHP) reduce GPU temperature by an additional 5°C. ACX 2.0+ coolers also feature optimized Swept fan blades, double ball bearings and an extreme low power motor, delivering more air flow with less power, unlocking additional power for the GPU.

- dBi (dB Noise Inverter) - EVGA's ACX 2.0+ fan turns off below 60C, generating 0dB of noise.
- MMCP (Memory MOSFET Cooling Plate) - Full size cooling plate makes direct contact with memory and MOSFETS, reducing memory up to 9°C and MOSFET up to 11°C.
- QSD (Quick Switch Dual BIOS) - Multiple integrated BIOSes allow you to switch to the secondary with the flick of a switch.
- OPT (Optimized Power Target) - The power target is precisely tuned for the perfect balance of thermal, power and performance, offering 33% more power over reference.
- SHP (Straight Heat Pipes) - Triple 8mm straight heat pipes offer 6% better heat dissipation than bent heat pipes with reduced thermal resistance.

It's a nice card for 1080p. You will have to lower some settings in some demanding games to get acceptable FPS.

Now maybe will stop saying you need to pay $450 for a card that plays 1440p games...
Dragon Age:Inquisition 22.2 FPS
Crysis 3 16.4 FPS (even a 970 is brought down to 25.7 FPS)
Tomb Raider 22.5 FPS
These are average FPS. Even with a game hovering around 30 avg FPS you are likely to still have dips into the 20s. Undoubtedly there will be more games that will be released in the near future that will bring a 960 to it's knees at 1440p and highest settings.

I think the 960 is a nice card for 1080p gaming and the 970 is a nice card for 1440p. I'm not sure where you are getting the $450 from. I paid $350 for my card and some 970s have been reduced to even less.
