ASUS GEFORCE GTX780 TI DIRECT CU II OC 3GB GDDR5
GPU Frequency: 954 MHz (Base) / 1020 MHz (Boost)

or

GIGABYTE GEFORCE GTX780 TI OC WINDFORCE 3X 3GB GDDR5
GPU Frequency: 1020 MHz (Base) / 1085 MHz (Boost)

Being the same price, which one is better?
 
the gigabyte is a slightly better model. the asus uses a voltage locked digi+ asp1212 controller while the gigabyte uses a ncp4208 voltage controller which is unlocked and will allow the card to overclock farther. as far as cooling and noise the asus is slightly quieter and runs slightly cooler. if i could only choose between those two models i would take the gigabyte.
 
evga classified then the msi lightning.... then whatever is better priced between evga, msi, or gigabyte. but honestly if your not going for a heavy overclock there is nothing really wrong with the asus. but i wouldn't buy one that wasn't from one of those 4 brands

I see.

I'm really not a fan of MSI, so I'm not interested in getting any component from MSI.

As for EVGA, I don't know enough about them. I've always had ATI cards and EVGA only makes Nvidia models.

Are they really that good?

Would EVGA GEFORCE GTX 780 TI DUAL CLASSIFIED W/ EVGA ACX COOLER 3GB GDDR5 PCI-E 3.0 be the best choice?

How does it compare to the Asus and Gigabyte ones? And how does the cooler perform?

It should be noted that this EVGA card is at least +100€ than the others.
