770 now or another card later?

[AMD Lover]

So when is Maxwell going to be out? I have my finger on the buy button of a 770 but if i dont get the 770 ill be getting 2x 240GB SSDS. Which would you do at this point? I also want to mention that the GPU is only $320. A great deal

[TheSLSAMG]

$320 is normal fare for a GTX 770, and it isn't enough of an upgrade from your current GPU to justify. Get the SSDs.

[Recon-UK]

I would R9 290 and 1 SSD, but that's just opinion.

[Vendetta]

You have a 660ti, really it isn't worth getting a 770 at this point, just wait. Also don't know why you would buy two 240gb ssd's but I think that is a better upgrade than a 770.

I know. And they're both GK104, albeit the 660 Ti is missing some CUDA Cores, TMUs and ROPs.

Sorry i thought your post said "and if it isnt" but it says "it isnt". Just misread

R9 290 and 3 free games 430 doll hairs>>>>>> 770 with a waterblock.

@TheNinjaNextDor

Whoa, had no idea about the block and backplate.

 

In that case, it's a strict "maybe". But still, not gaining that much performance.

Its a different GPU

If you can get that, get that.

He was running Blue EK Liquid?

That should be ok. What will you be running?

[One Who Craves Souls]

Meh... I'd pass and buy another card later, at least you have a 660ti.

[AMD Lover]

That should be ok. What will you be running?

You're definitely fine. Maybe run some DI through it or clean it, but since you will have blue coolant it will be ok.

idk, should i just wait. I havent played a game in a couple weeks but summer is coming and if i water cool buying this now is going to be cheaper than a brand new 880 or something. What would you buy. The SSD's, HHD and installing OS X will have to wait at least 2 months if i get this.

Since it's a 770 I would get it now, you won't find a better deal and could upgrade/sell it later.
