Umm, you get Predator and better cooling, not much of a performance difference though. I'd say you'dd be better off with the MSI GTX 770 just because it'll look better and be cooler, it would also be quieter.

He means getting an MSI GPU to match the MSI board. There won't be any advantage over going with an Asus 770 for example.

True. There's very little difference between different 770s, unless it's something like a Classified card. 

 

Go for the MSI card, it will look better with the board and will perform the same as other 770s
