What would be a good GPU for Gaming, video rendering, and recording games like battlefield 3/4/ And the Cod Saga going on, the video rendering part is the most important i would say, there is no budget, as long as 500w will support it, no favors in brand, but i know that cuda in nvidia cards help with video rendering, thanks

I think GTX760 is the best you can do on 500watt, about $240

i was wondering if a 770 would be able to support it, if i have the budget to support the 770, i could get a 750w psu while im there

Of course.
I'll look it up.
I don't think you need one that big for a 770, though.

yes, a 500w can easily support a 770, evga superclocked 770 is good

Yes a good 500 watt can probably work, but you are pushing it, as the manufacturer requirement although inflated is 600watt.

I'd have no problem with 550watt, but it may make even a good 500watt run hot.

well since im not getting the gpu until sometime next year, i plan to get the 770 with a titan style cooler ( i like the look of it!) i might as well add the 600W Psu to my partslist for the end of this year!

EDIT: by plan, after you said about the 760, i had a quick google and the 770 with reference cooler came up in an add so i thought why not!

In round passmark numbers, the 770 is 20% better than the 760.

6173 vs 4982

I think that is 20%

i would say so, also, you you recon a stock cooler would be ok for a 4770K, no overclocking just yet...

The only thing wrong with a stock cooler, besides it can't overclock much, is noise.

I don't overclock but replaced mine with a very inexpensive Arctic Freezer 7 pro rev2.

I have a 4670
