Gtx760 2gb on SLI or a gtx770 4gb???

Jim_the_Greek13 · May 4, 2014

So l want to buy a new gpu (on approximately this budget) and l was wondering: Should l buy a gtx 770 4gb or 2 gtx760 2gb??? Now there are some expectations l want it to meet on some high quality games. These are: 60fps atleast on ultra graphics (1920x1080p) (on games like battlefield 4 metro last light, assasin's creed, far cry 3 etc) while recording with shadowplay.

My pc specs are:
intel core i5-4670K OCed (not yet)
Asus Gryphon Z87
10Gb Ram
530W
Aaaaand em, what else???

You should be able to get a GTX 780 for the price of two GTX 760 cards in SLI.
The GTX 780 will give more consistent performance.

A 530W PSU isn't enough to SLI 760. Stick with one solid GPU. I'd just get a single 770 2GB. That will max out BF4 on Ultra with AA on 1080p, and still pull solid 60fps.

760 SLI would require at least 650W, preferably 700W.

I missed the power supply rating in your specs.
If it is good quality, you should be fine with a single GTX 760, 770 or 780.
You would want a good quality supply over 600W for GTX 760 cards in SLI.
As I mentioned above though, you will get more consistent performance from a GTX 780.
A single GTX 770 won't give you 60 FPS at highest settings in Far Cry 3, although you should get 50 FPS and you could increase this to 60 FPS by disabling MSAA and PostFX.
A single GTX 780 should give you the performance you are looking for.

760SLI wont work on your PSU. on 1080p ultra , even a 780 wont handle every title above 60fps ^^ (

The psu isn't a big deal. l mean a corsair rm750 is just 100 bucks here...

I strongly suggest to take single gtx 780 at this moment and add another later on when budget allows. Maxwell series cards area already making their way in and nVidia has announced Pascall as a successor of Maxwell. Better get high end card now as the price of single 780 is almost around what will cost you for two 760.

For two way SLI aim for 850W PSU and make it future proof.
