So which one is the best?
I first wanted the asus one but then i saw some people say that the evga one is also good.

I want the best one for my pc, my pc is very dusty (gone clean it when i get it) and doesnt have too good cooling so keep that in mind ;)

I like mine. The Gigabyte Windforce OC has the highest factory OC and a great cooling solution, it's just not the quietest. When I say not the quietest, I don't mean it's loud, I just mean it's literally not the quietest - It's very quiet, but the Asus DirectCU II series is probably the quietest.

The eVGA is good, but it just doesn't have the edge in sound, cooling, or speed. However it has outstanding warranty support, and the Step-Up program is pretty cool. Out of the two you mentioned, I'd do the Asus.
 
The Gigabyte one is the best for 400 dollars, it is overclocked at 1.14 Ghz which is as fast as you can go and it also has a very good triple fans which should keep it cool as well as quite quiet. So this is the most bang for the buck 760 you can get. Just 10-15 dollars more than the base model from other companies. This is the one i would have had prefered if i was buying a 760

Gigabyte GTX 770 is the fastest and the cheapest, only399$. But you won't get a back plate with it. If you want a back plate, go with Asus or MSI Lightning. If you want small size go with MSI Gaming edition. Gigabyte is the best for me.

If you have massive heat issues or components that sit immediately on top of the card, the backplate is good to have. Otherwise, if you have a normal setup where the card is basically by itself in the case and your airflow is good, it won't really do anything for you.

Eh, you'll be fine without a backplate.

It helps in reducing the heat and it helps the card from bending(very rare).
Also it looks stylish really. Just look at the back of this Asus GTX 770 card,
