I'm planning to purchase a GTX 770, but there are 3 versions of the GTX 770 that interests me. I'm not sure which would be the best deal for me.
Overclock: I'm inexperienced with overclocking graphic cards. Does it need a special cooler like you do for CPU's? If yes: then I will not overclock it. If no: I might overclock it.
SLI: I've owned a pair of 6950 set in CF. I nearly never got to experience the strength of it, I was in most cases better off with one card. SLI might be different, so it's possible I might buy a second card next year or after, depending on the evolution and pricing of graphic cards.
These are the 3 GTX 770 I've got my eyes on:
- MSI N770 Lightning
- MSI GTX 770 Gaming (N770 TF 4GD5/OC)
- MSI N770-2GD5/OC
Which one of the three would be the best deal for me? I've also noticed that the N770-2GD5/OC has a non-OC version.
Also please notice that my case allows max 300mm (30cm) for the length of the card.
If you need more info please ask! It's an expensive card, I don't want to regret anything.
