depends... if you overclock the snot out of the 770 you'll come within 5%-10% of a stock 780's performance... when we're talking about 1080p you probably will never tell the difference between the two cards, when you start talking about multiple monitors and higher then 1080p resolution the 780 starts to really stand out as the better card.

So in summery...

If you are playing in 1080p, no, get the cheaper card. if you are playing at higher resolutions or with multiple monitors, you'll find the 780 is probably worth the price difference.

Playing on ultra settings at 1080p on a single monitor, 770 is much worthy than 780? by how many percent?

depends on the title... and if you overclock that 770... generally the 780 is about 15%-20% faster at stock and with both overclocked. The 770 can almost reach a 780 at stock with a firm overclock.

The thing is at 1080p there is almost nothing the GTX 770 can't max or come close to maxing. If you have a 120hz monitor, you might see a difference between it and the GTX 780, if you don't then there really is no discernible difference.

ok so under 1080p single monitor playing there is no substantial difference between 770 and 780? you can make out the difference of 780 when you play games higher than 1080p and also like dual monitors, etc. that is where you will see substantial and noticeable difference between the two?

ok, how about the monitor hz? lets say same settings (1080p, ultra setting, single monitor) you are saying that on 60hz monitor 770 and 780 the difference is barely visible? the dfference will take place when the monitor hz goes up ?

yep. that's what i'm saying.

the 770 will hit 60fps in pretty much most any game on ultra settings at 1080p... but it won't hit 120fps in every game at 1080p in ultra... so you'll see a difference between the 780 and 770 in 1080p with a monitor with a 120hz refresh rate.

Its sorta like the difference between an fx6350 and an i5 or i7... if you have a 1080p 60hz monitor you'll hit 60fps with pretty much any title with that fx6350... but once you go to 120hz, the difference between the fx and intel become visible.

movies don't challenge a gpu in that class... and i was just talking about gaming. If you mean 3d gaming, 3d gaming at 1080p stresses your gpu like 3 1080p monitors will... in which case i would say neither cards are really enough (though the 780 would be better)

yeah coz i somewhat planning to buy a 3d monitor like from asus that comes with nvidia 3dvision 2 kit. which size of a monitor is suitable for 3d movies and 3d gaming at 1080p? 23"/24" or 27"?

if you plan to watch movies on it, and make it the centerpiece of a room, not just a computer desk, then get the biggest monitor you can afford. If it will just be on a desk, and you only plan to use it/watch from that desk, then 24" should be enough... 1080p starts to look a little poor up close if you get a giant monitor.

yeah i am planning to use my desktop for gaming and since the monitor is 3d ready i want to watch movies in 3d. so i think you are right 24" is better for me. i play games 90% of the time and 1080p on 27" would stretch that out will not look like hd anymore. thanks mate!
