ok so i am choosing between the AMD HD 7970 GHZ edition which is Vapor-x one
or the Asus DCU2 Gtx 770. The AMD card is 50$ less and comes with a choice of 3 games, which i will use. Or should i go with the slight better perfomance of the gtx 770?
 
Solution
7970 performs the same if not better than the 770, 7970 is a better deal by a far margin, same performance with three($100 worth) of free games. 7970 also offer higher OC and more VRAM(unless you wanted 4GB on a 770 which adds $50)... 7970! hands down!...

+1 to this.
 
What games do you plan to play? There might be more significant differences in performance and/or more individualized graphics settings on a per game basis. If you plan to play any PhysX games or something featuring TXAA, or Ambient Occlusion in Skyrim, for example, then that would place the focus more on the GTX 770.
