SHould I gtx 770 to 780

[zod96]

I play BF4 at 2560x1440 with everything set to High no differed AA but high Post AA. I use adaptive v sync and I get usually 55-60 fps on most maps. But their are times are certain maps like the new china raising maps with lots of jungle its gets really choppy at times which annoys me. I was thinking about selling my 770 2gb for around $280 and picking up a gtx 780. Would a 780 solve those choppiness problems or am I just blowing smoke thinking a 780 will fix that....

Get a 4gb 290. Oc ur CPU

Get a Radeon 290 or 290x, especially for that game.

OP I'd get the Lightning or Classfied 780 if the 290's still have the inflated mining price.

The SC 780 dual fan is $500 shipped now. The Classified is about $580 shipped. Is the classified worth the extra $100 or so?

No.
It is not worth the extra $100.

Also I think the Msi Gaming 780 is $469 on Newegg right noe after rebate.

Both those cards are inflated in themselves. Basically 20-25% more expensive for the same GPU. Doesnt make any sense to justify one inflated card over another.

Lightning is 10% more expensive, it may or may not be 10% quicker than a SC but it certainly has 10% better quality components.

OP, I wouldn't stick a dime in BF4 gameplay until they fix the game itself.

Are you on Windows 7 with HT enabled?

Op, the GTX 780 is a card you want clocked to the ceiling to justify its purchase from a 7950,7970/ GTX670/680,GTX770, etc. I don't know about anyone else but when I'm running a highly clocked card I like quality.

Is SLI an option?
2x 770s would be MUCH faster than the single 780.
