hi everyone..was currently thinking of upgrading from gtx560 ti to gtx 760..but wen i see the review of all brands..now dun noe which to decide..

currently a few brand attract me..zotac gtx760 amp edition..MSI gtx760 twin frozr gaming and asus gtx 760 direct CU2 OC..

most review say that their performance is the same but asus win in cooler and more quiet..price also win by rm200..is it worth it to get Asus just for that?? or Asus got other feature that make it more expensive than other brand??

I am using the Asus GTX 760 you mentioned. Comes with a gpu tweak software which you can adjust the power/clock setting.
And the price is within my budget.

I have Asus GTX 760 DCUII OC and from the two 760s that I have owned before (I also had Zotac 760 AMP!), the Asus version is clearly superior in every area. For more info, you can check out my review on the Asus card here. Unfortunately, it is also very pricy. sweat.gif 

I would personally recommend you to consider these brands:

1. Gainward GTX 760 Phantom - RM845
2. Palit GTX 760 Jetstream - RM889
3. Leadtek GTX 760 OC - RM899
4. MSI GTX 760 TF4 - RM979

* Prices are referenced from lingloong (Garage Sales)

If you can live with slightly higher temps and possibly lower boost clock speed, can consider Zotac GTX 760 AMP! as well. They come with 2 + 3 years warranty, unmatched by any other cards stated above.

see your review of the card and also for zotac one too.. basically i think zotac is temperature prob oni (correct me if im wrong) but most of the card out there also will pump to 80c which playing game rite..hmmm and zotac warranty is indeed attracting

thx for everyone's advice..will continue to study before i buy smile.gif

PCIE2.0 is a little performance drop, PCIE1.0 certainly much more than that.

Also, I pretty certain that if your mobo only PCIE1.0, your CPU are certainly much dated and will bottleneck the GTX970...

hmmm..since u talk about cpu i oso go check online..currently using old i5-2400...some say wnt bottleneck some say depend on game.. im confuse rclxub.gif

Since it is actually PCIE 2.0 and i5, there will still be some bottleneck, but should still be useable.

May be you can hold the upgrade for CPU and mobo till next year after Intel Skylake and DDR4 hit the mass market.

cukup makan also nearly 1k budget dy...really have to hold first..slow slow part by part upgrade.. sweat.gif

thanks for the advice..listen to u..get a card first then oni think bout mobo and cpu
