So I'm thinking of buying a 770 but I was wondering If anyone knew the average temps and If the 770 would handle BF4/CoD:Ghosts/Titanfall and some other low end games for Medium-High settings as I dunno If I should save up for a 780 or If a 770 will be fine.


PC Specs:
AMD FX-6350 6Core 3.5GHZ
8GB Crucial 1333mhz
750W CiT PSU

I have 7970 which can max out BF4 and COD Ghost with stable 60FPS.
Knowing the 770 is slightly better than 7970 it will perform as better.

So people think I should I get the MSI and not the EVGA?

Also does anyone know how hot It would run with BF4 on Medium settings? Google tells me nothing.

770 runs bf4 on ultra not medium. You'd be fine with either the MSI or EVGA. I'd go for EVGA just for personal reasons :p

Medium Is enough for me, I see no reason to run Ultra. :p

Uh trust me when i say this. High or ultra is WORTH it on this game. Dem graphics man. I get an average of 90 on big maps with my overclocked card on ultra with 0 AA. It is awesome to see these details.

Read the reviews, for the most part the MSI comes out on top for the 770, 780, 780 Ti. Note that I am talking about the MSI Gaming and EVGA SC not the Lightning or Classified / Kingpin which are in a whole other category (and cost). Here's the reviews on 780 / 780 Ti .... not that many 770 reviews as the reviewers tend to be interested more in the top of the line and finding both reviews ont he same site is harder.

In general, the MSI has larger / slower fans so it tends to be both cooler and quieter. But it all depends on the clock and how the vendor sets up the fan curves. From the TechPowerUp 780 article for comparison purposes (Idle / Load)

MSI GTX 780 GAMING 30°C / 73°C
EVGA GTX 780 SC 34°C / 74°C



770 Load Temps / Fan Noise
EVGA SC 770 = 69C / 40 dbA

Na, for brand of GPU`s, choose the one which you like. It comes with the taste now. MSI and EVGA are both good companies.

Choose the GPU which suites your style. :)
