I'm looking at the 2 bottom cards listed here (not the 4GB one)
http://www.gigabyte.us/search/search.aspx?kw=670#pr-1

I'm not really interested in overclocking. Obviously, the 4GB one is the best but I'm focusing on the other 2. My main question is, since I'm going to be getting one of the latter 2 (money reasons) the 2nd one is more money on newegg and has 2 fans but the other one has higher stock speeds and 3 fans and is cheaper on newegg. This is confusing me. I tried searching this and all I found was that the one with 3 fans (GV-N670OC-2GD), runs cooler and that the one with 2 fans (GV-N670WF2-2GD), has higher stock speeds but that doesn't seem to be true, unless it's ment for overclocking? Any help is appreciated

Get the 3 Fan model, I think the 2 fan model must be new, newegg might be trying to move the stock of the 3 fan windforce model, The 3 fan is know to be a great card that runs at really good temps.
