Nvidia Geforce GTX 770?!?!?

[Keslor]

I'm building my own computer, based around an Asus P6X 58D-E mobo i was given. I am planning to buy the Nvidia GTX 770, because it seems like a good choice ATM. I am also looking forward to the free steam download of Borderlands: the pre-sequel. However, when I go to a website like scan novatech, the search for Nvidia seems too come up with other brand names such as Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI, which i do not understand. Unless I am missingsomething quite major, Nvidia is a very well-known company that is completely seperate the to ones mentioned above. could someone please enlighten me as to how I should be approaching these sites to buy the GPU.

The part list as it stands (havent bought anything, but do have mobo) :
-Intel core i7 990X extreme edition CPU
-Asus P6X58D-E ATX mobo
-Corsair XMS3 12GB (3x4GB) RAM
-Seagate Constellation ES.3 HDD
-Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 GPU
-MSI Blitz ATX Case
-Case should come with a 650W PSU

There still nvidia those company's make the heat sinks and fans for nvidia GPUs. Getting a reference nvidia card is a lot worse than buying an Asus,evga,gigabyte etc card. The best place to purchase any computer part is www.pcpartpicker.com

thanks, I have been using partpicker to keep track of the different parts I want, but they dont actually sell the parts, just link you to somewhere like newegg or bestbuy, etc, depending on where it is cheapest.

any recommendations as to whay type i should go for? I saw a nice-looking Twin FROZR one, any good?

Nvidia is the company that makes the chips and boards for all GTX770 cards. Other companies like EVGA ASUS gigabyte msi... add their own overclocking and coolers but the guts of all the cards are the same.
