Radeon 7770

Hi, recently I've been looking at the radeon 7770 cards for under 130$ on Amazon. I'm wondering which brand would be the best performance wise for gaming. I'm currently looking at http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-HD7770-DC-1GD5-V2-Radeon-GDDR5-Graphics/dp/B007RFYFH0/ref=sr_1_20?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1343284738&sr=1-20&keywords=radeon+7770 and http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-11201-02-20G-Radeon-PCI-Express-Graphics/dp/B00782U10C/ref=sr_1_23?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1343284900&sr=1-23&keywords=radeon+7770. I was wondering about the dvi and mini dp though. What would be the differences?

Depends on where you live.

oddly enough, it feels as if they increased in price sort of, but i kinda dont like the prices they have on amazon. pushing 140 for a 7770 is usually higher than normal in my opinon(7770's go on sale occasionally, ive seen it as low as 105 before rebate before brand new). the reason why i think 140 is alot already because at 150, the vapor-x cooling varient is open, and goes to 135 if you do rebates on newegg =X. At stock, the ghz edition 7770 will be faster than the non ghz asus 7770.

can you give me a link to the ghz one? what is the difference?

the sapphire card you linked a a ghz variant of the 7770. GHZ edition cards are just OC cards with a higher factory overclock on them
