That's a great question! A buddy of mine wants a gaming rig himself, and I want to help him out (while giving myself an excuse to upgrade
)So he'll be getting my GTX 770, i5 4670, 16 GB ram, and a 650 W power supply from me.

Saw it listed on The PC Enthusiast under 8 Series mobos that are supported. I'll definitely check for an update, though. Also, side note, someone tried to log into my OC3D account more than 5 times... got an email with their IP.
1) Did I offend somebody in here?
2) Do I need to tell somebody here about that?

Okay thanks. Looks like the Ukraine...
I'll get in touch with one of the mods.
would a PM be the best route?
Yes, Not sure who here is in the Ukraine, They also might be using a proxy though so it could be hard to pin point this sneaky cretin.

>good tempsYes thats from boost
Like it or not though the 780 Ti does perform better, As I said before I've had both 290X and 780 Ti *also played around with other 290X's apart from the Asus version* and I cannot recommend AMD cards at this moment in time and I am by no means a fan boy, I have had every variant of ATI and AMD card since the early 2000's.
When AMD bring their top of the line next gen card out that outperforms Nvidias top of the lines next gen card but with good temps I will happily buy it.
75c good enough for you? The whole temperature issue is only really still a thing on a few cards now. Also, considering the price gap the 290x isn't that far behind now and even beats it at higher res (although thats almost deffo down to the memory available for each card). The drivers are getting alot more performance out of it now as well.
Which 290x have you played around with then?
As usual, I point to the fantastic Inno3d DHS iChill 780ti for my recommendation ^_^. Temperatures so good you can't help but OC.
Look:
-edit- Misread the thread. Whoops :^)

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I decided to go with the MSI GTX 780 Ti Gaming on Newegg. They are having a 4th of July sale and the price was too good to pass up. $630 US. Also a mail in rebate of $30. So after I do that, $600 US.
Inno3D wasn't an option for me, unfortunately. But I really do appreciate all the input I've received!
Oh, and the card is arriving today
