Hey guys im building a gaming pc to overclock, However im unsure what GPU to get for my requirements.
I plan to have one monitor and one tv running (2 together), so i can watch Blue ray films on my pc at the same time as playing battlfield4, thief and skyrim on 1400p/1080p.

What GPU would you advice to overclock in order to do the things above, the R9 820x 3gb or GTX 770? also which one overclocks better?

Solution
their perfonmance is on par and you can find 770 on a lower price tag but since you re going on a dual monitor setup doing demanding operations i would prefer the 280x due to the aditional 1gb of vram that eventually will make a difference. see if you could reach an 780 or a 290 model would be more preferable at such resolutions
