Possibly thinking about getting a 780

I like the cooler on this one - http://www.amazon.co.uk/EVGA-03G-P4-2781-KR-Nvidia-PCI-Express-Graphics/dp/B00CYHX7BQ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1387577423&sr=8-4&keywords=evga+780

 

I think this one might be faster and cooler and is a bit cheaper - http://www.amazon.co.uk/EVGA-GeForce-Superclocked-Graphics-2560x1600/dp/B00CYIQ00K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1387576767&sr=8-2&keywords=780

 

Which one is better ?

Thanks

Both will perform the same, but the beauty as it is.. and all the glory, I say go with the dual fan EVGA ... sorry, but you just have to accept the truth! Get the ACX one.. don't worry :)

I did this, no problems. It will run slightly hotter but you are getting a sexy card design.

 

The ACX cooler looks nice as well, if only they had added the glowing logo. :/

Does the reference throttle at all?I was also thinking about getting 780 and know that the ACX is very useful, but the reference looks SO GOOD!
