guys, i've check the size of the sapphire toxic R9-280X . .
It is damn long 308mm . .
Any suggestion on casing except the CM690 III??

Sorry to bother. I've got a couple of questions for all the sifus.

What are your thoughts on the gtx 770? I'll probably be playing at 1080p and would prefer to keep the fps at >60 fps for most of my games without sacrificing too much for it.

What is the difference for card manufacturers like Gigabyte, EVGA etc? Any recommendations?

I heard that nVidia is doing a 3 game promotion? If I were to buy from any vendor in Msia, would I still qualify for it?

Also, last one, I'm undecided on a i5-3570k or 4670k. Any thoughts? Also, I don't see myself overclocking in the next year-ish. Should I save the extra cash and go for a 3570 or 4670 instead?

GTX770 is a great card for 1080p. You should able to play most game at highest setting with stable 60FPS. Alternative choice would be the new AMD R9 280X.


It's just brand matter, each manufacturer comes different cooling design. Just choose the brand and design you like. Price is vary, brand such as ASUS is usually more expensive.


If you wish to overclock, doesn't matter when, take the K. I'll pick 4670K since it is newer.

Ok. Thanks a bunch. The evga one looks so fancy... out hunting for a sleek looking one.

As I know there is no local seller selling EVGA, you have to order from Newegg MY. But they are closed until further notice.

No one reply . .
T.T

Saw someone in Garage Sale selling it. Well, not sure which one to go for. Any experience in choosing?

Try take a look at Zotac 2GB GTX 770 AMP! - RM 1369.

Hrrmm... it's 2GB edition, right? The EVGA is 4 though...

Dunnoe if has any difference... Also going for the EVGA since I heard about free 3 games offer :3

Where is the link for EVGA GTX770 ?

for VRAM, 2GB is just fine for below 1080p.

Sorry. On mobile can't post. >.< i DID post there asking so i send u the link later. But yeah, I guess I'll go for 4 since I have plans to upgrade when I get more $$

EDIT: Ah, my bad. Was looking at NewEgg. Forgot NewEgg Msia close shop >.< Ah, what a bother.

There should be some chasis like Corsair 300R, 400R, Fractal Design Arc Midi R2, and more able to fit the GPU length u mention. Try searching through some at Garage Seller like IdealTech and see what they got .
