1. Hope you drive the graphic cards before mining?
2. What windows OS you using ?
3. What mining software are you using?

I would like you to share this details, mind you I suggest you start your mining journey using Nicehash, it automatically configure your gpu and use the best optimal algorithm (most profitable) for Mining, try that too and drop your comment

The problem is most new updated miners don't have supports for gtx970 anymore and another problem is the vram, 4gb VRAM won't do any good, the only option left is to mine Monero with the gpu, I'm not so sure if the new Ethereum Classic algo will support this card but you can give a try

Using well known mining calculators shows that gtx970 is obsolete for crypto mining, they are not Profitable anymore, these cards are still good options for gamers so it's better to sell the cards and better new cards with new architecture instead

At op be careful you have now attracted  someone looking to link you to cloud mining.  Most cloud mining setups are a scam.
