don't get a 270X, get a 760. Also don't get the 4GB version because the cards don't have the bandwith speed to actually use it fully.
However for both the 760 either get MSI, EVGA or Gigabyte. ASUS may look nice but it sacrifices its cooling for quietness making it dead silent but doesn't cool as well as the other three.

the 760 performs about 20-30% better than the 270X at the expense of being 40$ more expensive. or cheaper or even equal the price depending on where you buy from.

like before don't get the 4GB version of that either, useless.

He's right. Get an MSI Twin Frozr if you can. Best cooling for the GTX 760 IMO.

Ok thanks just looked at some benchmarks but in some games it's only a 3 fps increase is it worth the extra money here in the UK it's like £200 where as a 270x is like £130
