    Question about GPU

    Gonna be completely honest I'm clueless when it comes down to picking parts and which parts are compatible with others etc but the main part I've ran into choosing is the GPU. Unfortunately I'm not able to fit a 770 into my budget but I've been looking at 760s and I have no idea which one to pick. There's several different brands some more expensive than others. Can anyone help me pick one out?

    I'll be building with the follow:

    ASRock Z87 Pro3 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
    Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case
    XFX 550W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
    Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130932 - EVGA SC
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121775 - Asus
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814125466 - Gigabyte
    http://www.microcenter.com/product/4...x16_Video_Card - MSI

    They all seem relatively around the same price ($240~$260), The Gigabyte has 3 fans and the others have 2, it also has good reviews from what I see. EVGA has the SC and Dual SC version which I'm not sure how much of a difference that is but it also has good reviews. When looking at builds that were suggested on here everyone suggested the Asus GTX 760 over the others D: I looked at the reviews for Asus and they didn't seem like they were as good as the others. Why is that?


    I probably over-complicated this thread but I'm really struggling to pick the right card lol. Edit: Apparently I can post links >.>

    Its dutch but the charts are understandable. I bought the MSI because it was recommended by another site. It comes down to support and feeling by the brand.

    Thank you. I was looking more towards the Gigabyte version but after reading reviews it's possible that it may be too big for my case, so I guess I'll be aiming towards the EVGA SC version.
