Im building a new system and I have been trying to decide on a graphics card for a long time, my decisions have come down to the EVGA GTX 770 Classified Sli and the PNY GTX 780 Reference card in Sli (The PNY card has lots of good reviews, from what i heard lifetime warranty, its reference so its the same as the other brands). I have seen many reviews on both but they seem to perform very much the same i just need help deciding so guys comment your answers and tell me whats better, THANKS! :)

Classified has a better cooling system, which is good if you're going to sli. But even if it's cooler and you overclock it (making the heat problem rise again due to sli), it won't reach the power of the 780. It comes down to choosing a cooler set up or a more powerful one.

Gtx 780 is better either way because of superior architecture than gtx 770. Gtx 780 packs the newer gk110 which delivers better performance than the older gk104 found in the gtx 770/680. In sli, gtx 780 might be an overkill unless you plan to game on a resolution greater than 1080p. In that case, gtx 770 would make more sense.
