Hello, I'm currently having 660TI hooked up with 2 TN panel 1080p 60Hz using the DVI. I wonder what is the next big things for me . I plan to just game and i don't know if i should get 780TI or 970 or even 980. What is the best dollar value deals right now ? 780TI is on sale right now since they try to get rid of that stuff. Linus said 970 is decent.

 

What are you guy thought on it. I also have i7 3770k with Asus Z77 and H100. No plan for water cooled in the future

970 is best bang for buck.

Recommend it over the 980 for just gaming tbh

970 is best bang for buck. I'd recommend it over the 980.

 

It's so much cheaper that you can put that saved money towards a second 970 is you wanted.

So beside gigabytes, what manufacter should i give the money to ? ASUS direct CUII, MSI Twin Frozer, Gigabytes or EVGA

 

The EVGA FTW and MSi TwinFrozr are amazing coolers too. Both are a tad behind on overclockability (depending on how good the GPU you get is) but in terms of heat and noise they they run just as cool and quiet as the G1.
