Need Suggestions on Two different Video Cards (Evga)
FranklinSat Jan 18, 2014 10:13 pm
I'm currently looking at the "evga geforce gtx760 superclocked w/evga acx cooler 2gb ddr5 256bit" , and the "EVGA GeForce GTX760 FTW with ACX Cooler 4GB GDDR5 256Bit 04G-P4-3768-KR". I understand that the 4gog model is around 309.00, while the other 2gig card is 250.00. Suggestions, Ideas??
Thank You,

4gb. If using a single screen, you currently likely won't fill up 2gb anytime soon unless you really crank the anti-aliasing, but the headroom is nice.
Don't worry about the clock speeds. "Superclocked" cards simply have a factory overclock, a process no different from teh user doing i them selves. Also make sure you have a capable PSU ad that your case has the room. EVGA is a great company; their support is excellent, and their lovely warranties fully support overclocking and cooler replacement. They also have (well did, when i had mine) a neat trade-up orogram.

I have the EVGA GTX 760 SC with the dual fans 2gb version and paired with my FX8350 it runs quite well. I only have one monitor.

like abram said, if ur using a single monitor at 1080p res. take the 2gb card. if you plan to game @ higher res get the 4gb card. Also most "stock" 760's will reach the "superclocked speeds". unless u get a crappy gpu.
ASUS Radeon R9 270X is in that price range and will support mantel and free sync .

Thank you all for your suggestions. I only have One Monitor, and the 2gig is about 70.00 dollars less than the 4gig. But I'm thinking about the future "Games" that will be coming out that I might need to utilize the 4gigs. And yes, EVGA is GREAT. Everything in my system is evga except for the sound card.
