This review is from: GIGABYTE GV-N78TOC-3GD G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 780 Ti 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card

Pros:

- Great price at the time, one of the cheapest 780 Ti cards available
- Good cooling design
- Fast when it works
- Maxes most games @ 1080P with 144fps depending on my settings (when it worked)
- QUIET

Cons:

This card was giving me artifacts out of the box. I had thought it was great at first but then I started seeing green/yellow images and games crashed after about 10 minutes of gameplay. Ran 3DMark and confirmed the artifacts. I contacted Gigabyte because my Newegg warranty had expired by the time I found out the issue. RMA process through Gigabyte was fairly fast (I am fortunate enough to live near their RMA walk-in center) however they stated they found no issues and could not replicate my problem. Very disappointing.

Overall Review:

I researched Gigabyte's 780 Ti and found many other users who've experienced the very same issue I am having with this card. Check out the Newegg reviews from the non-OC 780 Ti card and you will see they're having the similar issues as well. I knew I should have went with my gut and bought an EVGA card instead. My brother vouched for his Gigabyte 670 Windforce, so I decided to give this card a shot too.. boy was that a mistake. Please save yourself time and frustration and stay away from this model from Gigabyte!
