Why is this so much cheaper than other 970 cards? What's wrong with it?

Memes aside it Suffers from thermal throttle and lacks power pins for OC

>thermal throttle
Would it be fine if I wasn't planning on overclocking? This is my first build?

It is a blower cooler design. It is noisy and inefficient. Every reference card throttled so far, even new pascal does. I would stay away from blowers.
