WHICH ONE?

[SarDust]

OK so lately i've been trying to figure out witch GPU to buy. I've narrowed down my choices to 3 cards.... and its up to you to help me figure this out!!! so price doesn't really matter because they are all in the same range, so here are the links.

 

  GTX 760 FTW  

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130944&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

 

GTX 760 SC

GTX 770 SC

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130946&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

 

Lastly.... A generic R9 280x.

 

the main reason why i actually didnt know which one to buy was because the 760s had 4GB GDDR5 instead of 2. Also which one over clocks the best. And which one would you put in your build???

[AlwaysFSX]

Can't you get a 970 for that price roughly? I would do that.

[Interfectorem]

The 770 is the most powerful out of that list... So I would go with that one.

[BonBon Scott]

IF I WERE YOU I WOULD GET THE GTX770.

 

Or take a looksy at the 970 prices.

[ZestyJalapeno]

280X, because it has 3GB of VRAM, and is within the performance margin of a 770.

[ROK]

GTX 770 out of them all, but I personally would grab a 970 in that price range!

but the 970 is around 320.... and they others are around $280

[rambi36]

i would get a GTX 970 if I were you. It's newer, and preforms near a GTX 780 for only $329. 

[SarDust]

280X, because it has 3GB of VRAM, and is within the performance margin of a 770.

but it doesn't really have the high enough clock speeds compared to the others...

Which 280X are you referring to?

[SarDust]

280X, because it has 3GB of VRAM, and is within the performance margin of a 770.

if i did do that where should i shave off the $40 bucks in my build?

motherboard

[SarDust]

XFX R9 280x

[SarDust]

motherboard

 

 

but i already am getting a $70 dollar motherboard and i dont think i could get it any cheaper than that.

[harrynowl]

ah right. most people seem to think they need a $250 board so I went for that first.

 

what's the rest of your rig?

The 770 you linked was $320.

I would get a cheaper power supply, you'd need only about 500W-ish for a one card config,

 

or you can find some parts on eBay to shave some cost.

Try cutting some on the case, the coolermaster n600 is $59 and is a better case.

[SarDust]

yeah because i like newegg's webpage setup. where im actually gunna get it is $279 i think.
