I'd go for the 570, new architecture, similar (if not better) performance, less power consumption... And it works fine with Ethereum

PS: the value in second hand could be higher in 1-2 years

thanks guys, its for a friend upgrading from a gtx 650

Are both cards reference designs or custom designs? Are they both used ot carry warranty?

neither carry pver warranty, thr 780ti is a windforce card and the 570 is an msi armor card

The 780Ti is a bad buy. Old card, higher power consumption, no longer being optimised. Performance is also degrading more than similar priced newer cards.

RX 570 preferred, but be aware of fan faults as it was likely a mining card. Not a factor that makes the much older 780ti superior, but it is a problem.
