Go to solution Solved by menendez1293,

I was thinking 780 but I will be over clocking so is 770 good enough for now? How big are these frame dips?

I can not give you an answer for certain, every card will be slightly different in the way of performance. Just look at some benchmarks for the games you are wanting to play and just use those numbers as estimates.

Hi guys I'm planing my first build and I am between two minds about what GPU to choose. It will most likely be Nvidia or green team if you will. Nothing wrong with audi just prefer Nvidia and it's slogan :)

I'm after 1080p gaming with ultra settings on a 27 inch monitor for some of the latest games BF4, COD ghosts, metro last light, far cry 3 and on and on blah blah. I would like FPS of 40+ and I will eventually be overclocking but not straight away.

TThank you in advance

EVGA GTX780 is my vote, if it's out of your budget the 770 might do it but it might have some frame rate dips on certain games.

Good point! $300 - 600 AUD 

 

Is a 780 overkill for 1080p gaming? or just a bit of future proofing.  

A 780 would be fine and wouldn't be overkill at all. I would recommend getting one.

I wouldn't say overkill, the 780ti would be for 1080p. 

 

According to PC Part Picker Au, the Asus DCII is the only 780 in your budget.

Yes the 780 isn't overkill and if you can get the 6gb one so you can run multiple monitors in the future

*Goes into the thread asked what Nvi gpu is the best*

 

*Final answer is a 780Ti* -> wat.

 

But to be honest, a 780 is pretty much enough to max out all games
