In addition to showing its new EVGA Geforce GTX 980 Classified Kingpin Edition graphics card at CES 2015 show in Las Vegas, EVGA has used the opportunity to announce its new EVGA Geforce GTX 970 SSC graphics card as well.


The new version of the GTX 970, which will be a part of EVGA's well known SSC series, will feature improved cooling, double BIOS support, updated display outputs and new 6-phase VRM which should provide even better overclocking potential.

As noted, the new EVGA Geforce GTX 970 SSC will feature the new EVGA ACX 2.0 dual-fan cooler with optimized fan blades, double ball bearings and "extreme low power motor", which should all provide more airflow, better cooling at less power and better overclocking potential. That same ACX 2.0 cooler from EVGA also has a 0dB mode which basically does not spin up the fans unless the temperature goes over 60C.

Based on Nvidia's well known GM204 Maxwell GPU, the EVGA Geforce GTX 970 SSC packs 1664 CUDA cores and works at 1190MHz for the GPU base, 1342MHz for the GPU Boost clock while 4GB of GDDR5 memory, paired up with at 256-bit memory interface, ended up clocked 7010MHz.

The new EVGA Geforce GTX 970 SSC should already be available with a price set at US $349.99/€345,90.
