Custom building a computer so I need an opinion on something.

I am on newegg looking at which GPU to get. Here's the one I am looking at, one is an EVGA and the other is an Asus.

Unless you're limited by your PSU I'd get neither. You can get an R9 270x for ten bucks more, and actually, after the 20.00 mail in rebate it would be ten bucks cheaper. It wins by far in EVERY category. Twice the performance in some categories.

If you have to go with the 750 TI, it probably makes little difference which one you pick. Their performance will be fairly equal and both are quality brands.

Thanks man! I actually looked at the specs and it blows the 750ti out of the water haha, I am an Nvidia fan myself but those specs don't lie, I would go with the 760 but that's like 20-30 bucks more expensive and I am trying to save as much as possible. Thanks again!

The Asus cards are generally built to last.
The asus at that price is much better value in my opinion.
Also for what its worth,Evga generally use the customer as quality control,
making a big deal out of fantastic customer service whilst forgetting returning dead gear is still a pain in the rear end.I dont know if thats a library picture but the asus twin fan setup will be a better result.
edit; darkbreaze offers a better solution if you have the watts for it.

Thanks man! I have always wondered if EVGA or Asus was the one to go with, now I know. Thanks again.
