I wont recommend using/keeping the GM204 (GTX 970). It cant ever run with free
software:

Sell this crappy GP102 card away and go away from nvidia. Nvidia died with the
780ti card. Its the last end-user card that can be used normaly. Everything
else is in some countries even a legal problem. Because the manufacturer
(nvidia) blocks the users from beeing able to boot the software they want on
THEIR hardware - happyly illegal in some countries. Hopefully some layer would
sue the heck out of nvidia so that they would have to release the private
signing key or close their doors.
Blocking the freedom of the users on such way should not be accepted by anyone.
