OK so I will be getting a GTX 760, and I had my mind set on this one from MSI http://www.amazon.com/MSI-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-N760-... But then I saw this one from GeForce http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperClocked-Dual-Link-Graph... I heard that I get a free game with the 760 and I was like oh cool! But I also want to know, is there a difference in these 2 cards? If so what? Which one is better? I'm just confused on really what the difference is. Thanks! Sorry guys, I'm still kinda new to this stuff!

First of all, both of the cards are GeForce (an Nvidia product line) and the second one is made by EVGA.

Now then, the MSI has gotten great reviews due to it running really cool and quiet. I can confirm that, I have it. I would recommend this card to anyone who wants their rig to be really silent. The difference in clock speeds doesn't matter that much. the question is: Are you ready to pay 20$ more for aesthetics?

So they are both the same, except they just look different from each other? That's it? Alright... I've heard you get a free game(s) with one of them??

Well I'm not sure how that free game thing works on Amazon, but if there is an offer that gives you a free game with the card, it should apply to both of these since they're the same card with different cooling.

Hell, I'm still confused. I see like 5 different kinds of models but they are all 760's 2gb. Yeah ummm... I'll just go with that msi one since my rig is black and red themed. Thanks man. If you have any other advice let me know!
