Ugh not this question again...

Always starts a war with keyboard warriors.



390 - If you want the very best FPS for your money
970 - If you don't mind loosing a couple of frames here and there but require less power when under load.

Only you know what you care about more.

under 5 in every game pretty much, not enough to worry.

Every card can coil whine, it's luck of the draw.

I would take the 970, you wont need a million watts to SLI them if you wanted another one later on. I have had both cards and I can tell you that the performance difference was minimal, the 970 outperformed the 390 in a majority of games.
