A factory overclocked 955 or is the 955 a factory underclocked 970.
You can try to spin the facts anyway you want but that is just not true.
If your not going to overclock then you should buy the fastest cpu you can afford. I'm siding with the 970.
I tend to cut back on whatever I can to allow more of the budget to be allocated for other components that could otherwise bottleneck the system. Similar performance would be seen between the 955 and the 970, so that's an easy call for me.
