If EVGA boards lang hisgutan, pareha ra na sila sa XFX. Don't judge the book by it's cover hehe.

true evga do make quality boards, what i mean is just i don't like the cooling system of their gpu it seems insufficient for me for factory oc or manual oc. i'm not only looking the board itself but the whole product.

EVGA has identified their market as being comprised mainly of watercooling enthusiast. They could only care less about
stock cooling.

I hate XFX hehe. EVGA may got the looks but I've been lurking in enthusiast forums and review sites enough to learn that EVGA boards isn't top notch in the bios department at least and their boards isn't cheap. So you're paying more for the looks and features is meh.

The irony is EVGA is one of the popular brands sa US and I bet less than 5% of the EVGA users are enthusiast. They played tough but I guess they finally gave in. Must have realized their stock sucky cooling cannot compete with other brands anymore.

^^That a 760? karon pa lagi na..

[Sempron Guy]

They implemented it since GTX 780, I think mao na na ila cooler. So far it's effective about the same caliber as Palit's Jetstream.

[keropi]

So they finally gave in.. But i bet those are still reference layout boards. Or else they'd lose a portion of the watercooling market..

Kibaw na ko.. They opted for that cooling solution because the reference cooling on the 780/770 are similarly expensive designs.. Haha.. Brilliant EVGA..

I used to believed that EVGA is the best GPU manufacturer out there, but only to find out that they aren't and they don't come off that cheap I would prefer MSI. Now, I only like their mobo's especially the Classified.

mga boss, ok ra ba isagol ang inno3d og evga for 650 ti boost sli? or mas ok kung dual evga? and ok ra ba ang 600w psu for this setup? plan nako mag sli gud.. daghan positive feedbacks tungod sa iyang price/performance ratio..

^ pwde ra bro... basta the same GPU chip lang... in your case, both must be GTX 650 Ti Boost... if dili sila the same ug speed, mo down clock ang faster card to the speed of the slower card... and for your PSU, kumbate ra na sya...
