GPU comparison

[Yummychickenblue]

Hello forum!

 

Is it worth it to pay the extra dollars for an EVGA ACX GTX 770 over an EVGA GTX 760 ACX?

[Superarragon]

Aren't those the exact same card...?

[One Who Craves Souls]

Or does he mean the SC vs non-SC?

what?

I assume you meant a different GPU, because it would be idiotic to ask whether you should pay more for a product.

I meant 760 I'll go fix that.

[One Who Craves Souls]

Then yes! I say it is worth it for the 770, that card at 1080p is a beast.

[Yummychickenblue]

Look guys! It's trying to communicate!

Seriously now, what's the price difference? If you are in the US, I would say it is worth it.

Yeah i'm in the US.

770 but if your locking for the best price 2 performance the 780 is the way to go. its expensive but it mops the floor with the 770 and its also good with 1440p and 1600p gaming if your willing to turn down a few of the settings. Its hard to suggest a 770 when you could pay a couple hundred bucks more and get a way better card. if I'm wrong please correct me.

watch this

[jake98]

well shit that doesent include the 770 give me a moment! :wacko:

I have seen that video, here is the problem the cheapest ACX cooler deign comes in at $500 I only make $520 a year and I need a higher wattage PSU to power it.

[jake98]

right then the 760 or 770 is the way to go you will still get killer preformence

if your willing to turn down the settings a bit the 760 is a good value

For 1080P, a 760 will run any game very well, a 770 would be just to get 75 instead of 60 fps and epeen.

For BF4 on ultra with maybe turned down AA you're looking at 60 FPS.

But how does it handle 1080P gaming with a second auxiliary monitor I want eventually get another one.

That will have little to no impact on the in-game performance. I had an auxiliary monitor and lost 0-2 FPS maybe.

But how soon will I need to upgrade if I got a 760 over a 770 or 780?

It just depends on if you aren't happy with how it's performing in games. As long as you are playing in 1080P you should be good in most games, with the exception of things like Star Citizen.

Here're the cheapest cards for each that are in stock on the EVGA website and the difference is $90. I say it's not worth it, but you just have to look at comparisons and make the decision yourself lol

Thanks! looking at the prices It seems like I am making a better investment in the 760.

But then again I recently rewatched @LinusTech's video about lower end products and he basically said "go big or go home"

So @TheNinjaNextDor would recommend the 760 but what would you recommend @LinusTech?
