770 4GB or 780TI GB?

[negru08]

Well I am looking at building a rig and I am kinda stalled on the graphic card. I was leaning towards a 770 4GB but I read that in comparison to a 780TI, its about 20 percent less in graphical power?

So which would you pick if money wasnt really an issue. I want to pick a card that will last me for a good 5+ years without the need to SLI...and if I did SLI would last me a good 8 + years.. Also what power suppy... I read people say 750 is plenty? But will that be enough for SLI and like the motherboard and everything else?

I will have this rig hooked up to a 50 inch Plasma screen.

780TI easily beats the 770, 750 watt for one is plenty but if you get two go with an 800 watt or greater PSU, to be safe.

definitely 780 ti it destroys 770...750w psu would be enough and i would recommend seasonic, xfx or corsair...if you want to SLI in the future i would recommend 1000w just to be on the safe side and again any of those brands i mentioned would be good for the psu

If money is not an issue, I would go for the 780 Ti. Its the fastest single GPU today and you won't be need it to SLI for a long time (if using 1080p). If you want to game at 1440p, you might SLI it soon in about 2 years. About the SLI, 850W 80+ Gold power supply will keep you running solid. http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/geforce_gtx_780_ti_review,8.html

Hmm how about a 780? Is it worth the almost $200 to get the 780Ti?
