Gtx 780 ti or Mard 760

lucasmaues · Aug 8, 2014

I want a computer for gaming ( mainly ) and video editing. After some researches I decided to go for the following hardwares:

intel i7 4770k
Asus Maximus VII Hero
Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB( 2x8 )
Corsair RM 850
Corsair H100i

I don't know which case I'm going to get but it will be a full size one.

For the graphic card I don't know if I should get ROG poseidon gtx 780, asus gtx 780ti or mars 760. Which one should I buy?

What are your thoughts about this configuration, would you change anything? Let me know, please.

why the asus 780 ti? why are all the brands asus? There are way better cards than them

Looks good! Budget allowing I'd recommend the 780 Ti as it's the best of the bunch. The Mars 760 will come close but will need more power and generate more heat.

780Ti ftw! the poseidon's selling point is the liquid cooling possibilities but you can get that for the 780ti if you want to go LCS. performance wise, i'd go for 780ti.

When I started to search for graphic cards I read in a lot of forums about EVGA and ASUS and people said that asus has better components than evga, that's why i choose asus, but I haven't made my mind yet, which cards would you suggest?

Budget? I know 780 ti's like the back of my hand now after 2 months of researching for my own rig

EVGA or MSI. MSI's 780 Ti Gaming has the best review (of which I've read).

(Personally) ive had nothing but problems with asus GPUs id go with sapphire or gigabyte theyre not much difference in price and come very highly OCed out of the box. Also if youre not planning on OCing then save the cash on the K version processor and give up on the h100 get a cooler master 212 evo instead

Oh i meant, just for the gpu, how much are you willing to spend for a gpu?

Fullmetalalkami · Aug 8, 2014

And id definitely choose EVGA over asus. asus RMA policy is unnecessary ball ache

I don't think its an issue, given his choices, as long as they are Asus.

Fullmetalalkami · Aug 8, 2014

EVGA 780ti. Theyre the best performing 780ti

okay, do you want to overclock? If so, do you want to overclock moderately, or balls to the walls overclocking

lucasmaues · Aug 8, 2014

Fullmetalalkami :

Some people told that if I go for an asus mobo I should get an asus graphic card. is that true?

legend001523 · Aug 8, 2014

lucasmaues :

No, it just looks better cause red on red

Fullmetalalkami · Aug 8, 2014

Have you not considered an r9 290? Amazing card fir alot less money than the 780ti. If cash isnt an issue then the 780ti is a better choice if you wanna save your pennies then the 290 is better

No, I will overclock just in extremely situations and using GPU tweak

so, no overclock? cause I didn't get what you were trying to say, first part of the sentence says no, but last part says yes

lucasmaues · Aug 8, 2014

Fullmetalalkami :

Yes, but in this case I also should have to go for AMD processor, right?

legend001523 · Aug 8, 2014

lucasmaues :

no, you can mix and match cpu and gpu

Then you should try the evga classified acx, it's got great features that make overclocking very safe and also you can overclock it like mad, or the inno3d dhs edition if you live in EU
