Which Graphics Card?

Go to solution Solved by multitasker451,

What resolution?

I would go with the EVGA personally because they're legendarily reliable and have great customer support.

 

 

Id say evga, just because of the higher clock out of the box

 

 

the EVGA will be faster out of the box but overclocking potential is for the most part random. I would get the EVGA if you plan to use displayport capable displays because in my opinion, 3 displayport ports is an amazing value add now that I have a 1440p monitor

EVGA 04G-P4-2483-KR (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-04gp42983kr)

 

Vs.

 

MSI GTX 980 Gaming 4G (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-gtx980gaming4g)

 

Which one is better and why do you think so?
