BEST GTX 770?! Which runs the coolest?!?

[gavinbaird]

I am in the process of putting a 4K build together. I dont like any of the current gpus on the market for 4K gaming (need more power and vram). So i am simply going to put one gtx 770 as a temporary gpu and run all games at 1080p on the 4k monitor until some beefier gpus are released! So, i need to know which card MSI, EVGA, or Gigabyte, has the best stock cooler!

IF anyone has ran benchmarks and know of one that cools significantly better than the others I would love to hear about it!


These are the 3 cards i am considering! but happy to take any advice!

Get EVGA or ASUS, both cool great (Asus has the best cooler) and EVGA has the best quality.

which one OC good ?

 

[Gam3r01]

ASUS is typically the best overclocker, with EVGA second.

one said to me ASUS doesn't OC

MSI and EVGA do

NOW ... HOW to be sure of this info ?

also .. heard others say they can't break ASUS voltage lock.

Asus is the best overclocker because of its cooler, in order to overclock better you need to have a quality cooler to being with. The thermal barrier is hit much more often compared to the voltage barrier(if its ever hit).

Could you please, provide me with links so I see which 770 is best in OCing, for, MSI, ASUS and EVGA ?

Also, explain the thermal barrier please, is it a thermal system in the card which lock increasing voltage over the voltage set by ASUS ?

Does other cards have similar thermal system ?

By thermal barrier I mean the cooler wont keep up with your temps.

I know these cards

i just don't know which one is best !!

also thanks for newegg links .. it has nice pictures which i have a closer look to the card and see more about the cooling system.

Really it comes down to brand preference and atheistic to you. All 3 are amazing cards.
