MSI vs Asus vs Zotac vs Galaxy vs other

austenwhd · Oct 13, 2013

I am upgrading my GPU to either GTX 760 (preference) or GTX 660 (budget), both 2 GB, from my current 650 Ti 1 GB. I want a little advice on which brand to choose from.

I don't OC.
I don't play games (at all).

I do 3D Animation and FULLHD video Editing.

I would like the most durable, coolest and power efficient model. Also, Gigabyte is a BIG NO for me (just NO!).

So guys, which one is best suited for me.

P.S. My specs are mentioned in my signature.

How about you get the power of the GTX 760 for the price of a high-end GTX 660? It would be possible if you got the Radeon HD 7950:

If you must get the nVidia cards, I would recommend EVGA.
On the other hand, you could save a ton of money and get the HD 7870 which outpaces the GTX 660 and costs about the same:

The two free games also don't hurt..lol

Radeon is not supported by softwares i use, otherwise i would've added a few bucks more and chosen 7970, but sadly it just doesn't fit my requirement. Beside, my choice is ONLY between 660 and 760, my question is about the brand.

And like i mentioned above, i don't play games AT ALL. So gaming performance does not matter to me at all.

Don't...

Yes I know you don't game, but unfortunately gaming metrics are the only widely-published way to judge a mainstream card's performance. If you cannot use Radeons, then EVGA is the king of GeForce. Really, really though, I would be looking at a used Quadro card for what you want.
