Hello there, this is my first post on the forum so please do tell if im posting wrong or something. So my current specs are: (in case you are interested) GPU: xfx 6950 CPU: Amd 8350 RAM: 12258 MB Corsair xms DDR3 Memory: 500 GB (Not sure what kind) MO: MSI 7640
So i've been looking around for a new GPU to play around with. I've been thinking of starting to stream a little, but im not sure if that matters alot on the GPU. I've been looking into the EVGA Geforce GTX 770 and MSI Geforce 770. If you guys have any other tips please comment =)!
I upgraded from crossfired xfx HD 6870s to an evga gtx 770 superclocked with the acx cooler. I saw a fairly large performance boost and my temperatures stay very cool. I imagine you may see even greater gains upgrading from a single 6950. Another plus from the evga card is that it comes with a free backplate when you register it if you are into that. I think it looks good in my all black interior.
You ahve to create a free account at EVGA.com first. This will also give you access to other awesome stuff like OC Scanner (OC benchmarking platform) and Precision X (GPU overclocking made easy; Logan has mentioned this in a couple of recent EVGA product reviews (I know he did it in the 770 video, but I think he did it in the 760 as well). Then you just go here: http://www.evga.com/articles/00753/, register your card, and give them a shipping address. I just ordered the same card that crazymobster has yesterday, though I'm upgrading from a single GTX 670, which was already an upgrade from crossfire 6870's. Calling me excited would be an understatement.
