Hi guys, 
I'm currently selling my 600 Ti on eBay and once sold will be purchasing a 770. However, I'm unsure which too get. At the moment I have an Asus card and really enjoy it's overclocking capabilities. However, with the 770, EVGA's ACX option is around £30 cheaper in the UK. Which would be best? I'm not bothered which has the higher clock as I'll be able too overclock them myself. 

See my Build here!

Intel 6700k -  Strix GTX 1080Ti - Corsair AX760 - Corsair Dominator 16GB 3000MHz - ASUS Maximus VIII Hero

 

Seagate Barracuda 1TB -  Samsung 120GB 840 - Samsung 840 EVO 250GB - Corsair H100i - Corsair Air 540 White -

 

Corsair AF120 - 2x Noctua NF-F12 - 3 x Noctua NF-S12

 

 Dell S2417DG - Dell UH2515H

Wait for 9000 series, there is a chance it could be much better than the 700 series.

most of the coolers have pretty similar performance so I would go with the evga card since it's cheaper, has a 10yr warranty, actually good customer support, and do a bunch of giveaways on the website.

Evga ACX is a beast.

So... If Jesus had the gold, would he buy himself out instead of waiting 3 days for the respawn?

(if not would buy Evga) :)

What they are trying and failing to say is "Wait for the 9XXX series".

Because you should. October. Wait for it.

it's like a 1-5c difference between most coolers.

at idle... overclocked one card would hold 70°C while other would go over 90°C

5°C difference at idle doesnt mean 5°C when clocked

why do you think graphic card prices can differ one from another 100 dollars? Because then OC far better -> better cooling.
