The Newegg one is superclocked, which means is base clock and boost clock are higher than the other one.

You could overclock the stock card to the superclocked one's clocks.

Not really, it is tough to find one anyways. Get the non-superclocked and overclock it.

That's about as good a GTX780 availability list as you can get.

Obviously if you want a Titan cooler version (good for SLI and small cases especially) then the cheapest version is this http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-03gp427...
All Titan cooler versions, regardless of manufacturer or stated clock speeds should be essentially identical as it is the reference design, meaning that it should be fairly straightforward to clock any of them to the speed of any of the others.

Yes. PCPartPicker is good, but some of the cards are not so great there, so guidance is probably good. Find one in your budget range and tell us what it is. We will tell you if it is good or not.

Newegg is pretty hopeless for the UK market, I've never found a good way to see what is actually available, in stock, and eligible for UK shipping. Add in that you could get stung with import taxes if they screw it up, and it's probably safer to stick with UK suppliers until they get their act together.

I'd generally advise shopping amongst the cheaper models in any range of graphics cards anyway as the "super" "turbo" "hyper" "overclock" models are usually really overpriced.
The cheapest models available in the UK (at least on pcpartpicker) are the Twin Frozer and Windforce models, which are very commonly reviewed and solidly rated across the board, as well as coming with a decent factory OC.
Unless you desperately need a reference style cooler, I'd suggest sticking to those.

It's a reference Titan cooler, but it's not eligible for UK shipping, so pointless. It's at the stock clock speeds, so not the exact version you wanted no.

Ok so what FPS would you guys say i'll get with this card?

http://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?It...

And is it the same as this card?

http://www.dabs.com/products/evga-geforce-gtx-780-3gb-p...


And when i say what FPS i mean like what will i get on BF4 max setting non overclocked and then what would i get overclocked?


Depending on your CPU, you could get 70-80 FPS not overclocked and maybe 90 overclocked.

Those two are the same card, the stock clocked Titan cooler version. You'll notice that the model numbers - 03G-P4-2781-KR, match.

As for fps, it's dependant on a load of stuff - the rest of your system, the type of map, what's going on at the time, and your display resolution, as well as the specific settings used (basically nobody uses every single setting as they can cripple even high end systems). A reasonable estimate would be somewhere in the 60s fps range for GTX780s running at 1080P with more or less everything turned up, again, situation dependant - a multiplayer game is unlikely to be super-consistent. Overclockeding/using a factory OC card might add 3-8fps, it's not going to be a vast amount.

Btw what is that you need help with ?,i saw your question was answered and no Best answer was picked,
do you need any help deciding on the board ?,what power supply unit are you going for ?

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6980/nvidia-geforce-gtx-7... this is the boost you can get when Overclocking the 780
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6WFQ2vjRso Covers the 780 and the 780Ti

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtIl-W4hqrA pretty much the larger segment of the 780 Cards,look at this,check the benchmark/price and decide!

When getting a motherboard
your priorities should be,high quality components,support for SLI/Crossfire IF YOU WILL USE IT
Overclocking support IF YOU WILL USE IT

a 'Gaming motherboard' loaded with unnecessarily features are usually not felt,i remember there was a benchmark comparing a cheaper mobo with a more expensive gaming one,the difference was very little!
Focus on motherboards which are high quality,High quality complements on a motherboard is better than features you will not use or effect your game play,get a high quality Mobo which is not marketed towards gaming,and use the saved money for a nice PSU or a better GPU,its all up to you

Instead, you should get the Core i7-4790K and ASUS Z97 PRO if you want an equivalent. You will get much more performance and you will also be able to upgrade to Broadwell. Your PC will also run faster and longer because of the better cooling.

No way. The 4790K is the 4770K, but with the heat issues fixed, and runs faster.

If you have a Z87 board, you will have to update it (requiring another chip) to the latest BIOS unless it is a certain revision or above.
