Yea but i compared them on gpuboss and the fps are huge different lol

 

yeah, but they're less than half the price and if you have a 60hz montor it's irrelevant. For the price of a 780ti you can crossfire 2 r9 290s and get 80% more performance if you have a 120hz monitor.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Go with an MSI R9 290X. Not quite the performance of a GTX 780 Ti but pretty close and the price is much better. I would not suggest going any lower. The more powerful the gpu the longer the useful gaming life.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Hi,

I would get another HDD for games and software. The WD Green is a great storage drive and it would serve you well for your videos, photos, documents, etc., but high performance and gaming is not where it shines. One WD Blue can be considered as an upgrade, but I would keep the WD Green as a storage and get a WD Black for some heavy gaming.

Hope this helps
