What Type of GTX 680 should i get!

[batman3009]

I want to know which type of gtx 680 is better in performance (EVGA-Asus-MSI......).Plz help me cuz im confused and i dont know what type to buy( i saw EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC Signature 2 its with 2 fans) but i dont know if it is good in performance or not.

the cheapest one you can get..

 

[centaurius]

Or a 670 OC which is by far best bang for buck since an OC 670 gets the same performanc (sometimes better) as a stock 680, so reviews say...

 

[mcnumpty23]

+1 for the gtx670

a gigabyte gtx670 oc is almost £100 cheaper than the equivalent gigabyte gtx680 for a very small performance difference

makes the gtx670 a no brainer in my opinion

 

[vitornob]

+2 for the GTX670

 

[verbalizer]

if you got the money, get the GTX 680.
it is overall the faster card even though select GTX 670's are kick-ass..

 

[batman3009]

so which is better hd 7970-gtx 680-gtx 670 and which manufacturer i should buy(for better peformance)

 

[verbalizer]

depends, are you strapped for cash or not..?
(I hate repeating..)

i saw EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC Signature 2,i wanted to know if it is good in performance?.Is radeon hd 7970 better or equal to it in everything?

 

[verbalizer]

this week the 7970 is better, next week the 680 is better....
670 is and has been the price per performance winner..

just grab what you want and go with it, you can't lose with any that close to the top..

 

[batman3009]

What about temprature in both gtx 680 & radeon hd 7970?

 

[verbalizer]

depends on the actual model in-particular.
but the GTX 680 wins that battle in power consumption IIRC.

GTX 680 + an OC will beat a GTX 670 + OC. If money is not an issue then I would go for a GTX 680 and OC it. Thats what I am doing when I sell off my 2x GTX 470's.

It's like people completely blow off the notion you can OC a GTX 680.

with tha CPU you'll need a HUGE overclock to not bottleneck the GPU.Still though i dont know why but AMD's cards seem to outperform Nvidia ones when paired with a slower CPU.I remember there was an article about that on hardocp.

This card is actually faster than a GTX 680.It will however consume more power.

So you say hd 7970 is faster than gtx 680 with my cpu (amd fx 6100)?

BOTTLENECK.!!!!!

I've got a pair of these ones: http://ca.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4178#ov
They are factory-overclocked.

I would not waste my money on a 680 if i was you i would buy this MSI N670 PE 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 670 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127685#top And make no mistake about it this card is a straight beast!

I'd stop everything and first get a real processor..
