Gigabyte 770 4gb $450
EVGA 770 4gb $510
Seems like an obvious choice; the gigabyte has 5 stars on both amazon and newegg. I've been around long enough to know evga has the best reputation; I have three video cards, a mobo, and a psu from them. But in reality is there any reason to believe the evga may turn out better? If I had to guess, the difference in price exists only because of the high demand for the evga brand. Clock speeds are almost identical. Warranty is now the same (gonna miss evga's lifetime warranty). I know the ACX cooler is supposed to be amazing but windforce has always been impressive as well, and the reported temps are great.
So any reason I shouldn't immediately grab the gigabyte?
