ok, i am a newbie at building and i have narrowed my video card choice to msi gtx 650ti power edition or evga gtx ssc 650ti. which is better or more reliable company. they are $5.00 apart in price and i only have until midnight today to make a choice. i hav 10% off at amazon till midnight. any advice will be taken. i am using it in an asus z77 sabertooth board and have purchased seasonic 650 gold edition power supply and got a good deal on nzxt black with orange 410. will not sli. hoping someone answers. thanks mates.

See what's the cheapest and get that one, for lower-end cards, not much difference between the two.
If you could get a 7850 1GB would be better for gaming(?).

7850 is more than twice the price. i do not game much.

if you dont game much 3570k is overkill. are you doing cad systems or video processing?

the 3570k was only 10.00 more than the 3570. at amazon. i bought the msi poweredition they kept lowering the price and in the end it was cheaper than the nvidia one. they lowered the price as i was collectiong for my new build almost everything i bought was lowered as i kept looking at my cart and with free shipping and an addition 10% off it was a good deal.

that 670ti power edition ended up costing me about 97.60.
