7770 or 7790

I am building a gaming pc, and I am between 7770 2gd5 (2gb of GDDR5) and 7790 (1gb of GDDR5) which one should I get and why?

7790 out of the two. Better Performance. Quit a bit better actually. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/HD_7790_DirectCU_II_OC/9.html

definitely a 7790
i have a 7770 and it can't really compete with the newer cards. 🙁
For example, I could barely play the battlefield 4 beta even on the lowest settings at 1080p

id get the 7790, since a 7770 wont handle graphic settings and resolutions that would require 2gb vram anyway.

and, is a 500 Watt power supply good for it?? (Corsair propably) I am also going to buy an Asrock pro3 r2 and FX 6300 with 8 gigs of ram

 

[guggi4]

Yes, would be fine
