I'm starting to order parts for my first build, and I'm looking at which GTX 780 to buy. People have suggested going for ones with a custom cooler like:
EVGA 03G-P4-2784-KR
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CUIVSNS/?tag=pcpapi-20
or
Gigabyte GV-N780OC-3GD
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D6KBWA8/?tag=pcpapi-20
However, they usually seem to be out of stock or very expensive. For example, Amazon is predicting that they'll ship the EVGA in 1-2 months, and I really don't want to wait that long. It looks like it'd be easier to buy a GTX 780 like:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125461
Without that custom cooler design, will I potentially have more problems with cooling? I only plan on running a single card, and the case I plan on buying is:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119240
It has a single 200 mm front fan and a 120 mm back fan, but I can add a top fan. One of the Newegg reviews for the case mentioned that cards might get hotter since there isn't a side fan blowing directly on it. Any idea if I'm going to run into trouble?
