Asus GTX 770 DCII 2GD5

[Czuth Gabor]

I can get this videocard, with more than 2 years of warranty for around 230$.

I want to ask that, is there any problem with this videocard? I mean temperatures, performance etc. Please tell me everything about the card which is worse than other brands

Thanks!

I have Gigabyte gtx 770 2gb OC version. It is not ASUS, but GPU itself is the same.

With stock fan settings GPU hits 85C under load and it is not fun.
I have to spin up fans (there are three of them) to 100% of seed to keep the GPU under 75C.

Everything else is fine.

The new asus gtx 770 is 270$ so if its 2nd hand then you are getting only 40$ less brand wise its good and temp & performance are also fine.

85c :O thats too much my friend uses gtx 770 and he never got higher than 75c at max.
The cooling depends on the ambient temperature and the airflow of the case.

I get it from my colleague, he's switching to 970, thats why he sell it to me, so it's 2nd hand. The card itself only 4months old, 2.5 year warranty. (we work at the same company and the warranty card belongs here aswell)

prit87, I agree, 85C is a bit too high. I live in a hot place and there is no good ventilation in the place I keep my pc, so it is just like this.

Czuth Gabor, I think 230$ for a used gtx 770 is a little bit pricey.
Hit price down to 200$ and grab the card.

In Hungary, brand new gtx 770 starting price is still 380$....

Wow, this is really pricey. Then just grab the card with its price.

Just to note, 2bg of VRAM is not enough for 4k gaming, if you are planning to switch to 4k soon or wanna play with three 1080 monitors, then save some money and get a gtx 980 instead.

I'm not interested in 4k, not even 3 monitors. I have a big 27" 3d samsung that will be enough for me : )

Sounds like a decent price all things considered, go for it

If the new cad is 380$ in your country then you should get the card its a pretty fair deal.
