GTX 760

EVGA 02G-P4-2761-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card
EVGA 02G-P4-2761-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card

Pros: EVGA has never disappointed me. I was running two GTX 460's in SLI. One 760 out performs them by far. The 760 is extremely fast for the money. It runs cool and quiet I overclocked it ,to see what it would do, but there is no need . It runs every game on ultra . I'm going to buy another one and SLI .Triple the cuda cores of the 500 series and double the 600. Comes with some nice case stickers. THEY GOT RID OF HDMI mini !

Cons: Other than EVGA changing colors . Nothing bad to say YET!. Some people say they are a little noisy under a load in game. I haven't noticed that in Witcher 2 , tomb raider, Sleeping dog's, wow or Skyrim. I do run a lot of cooling so that could be why I haven't noticed it. I haven't checked out NVIDIA GTX Experience , it Seems like a good idea. But I like to tweak my own graphic's settings.

Great value vs performance

Pros: Easy to install and setup. Runs cool. Plays fallout 4 and Ark on Ultra setting. Great picture quality. Fan is Quiet (I've got seven other fans in my system and cup is water cooled) . It comes overclocked. Software is user friendly. Small design .

Cons: No SLI

Overall Review: For the price, you get a very capable card.

Pros: Price is great for the power you get. Not noisy.

Cons: No extras. I had to buy a 6 pin adapter to run a video card. Not a big deal only a few bucks. Don't consider this for SLI / Cross fire not enough steady power . And not enough or cables

Antec High Current Gamer Series HCG-900 900W ATX12V v2.3 / EPS12V v2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Certified 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply - Intel Haswell Fully Compatible

Pros: Great power supply .Minimal power for top end gaming machine. Silent fan, plenty of power for a I7 AMD dual Sli/ Crossfire configuration. Steady power. I've been buying Antec products for years and have yet to have a DOA .

Cons: Not modular. But if you SLI, Liquid cool or run muiltiple hard drives in raid you will need all the cables anyway.

Overall Review: Use a power supply calculator before buying to be safe.
