9.5/10 with the EVGA FTW 670.
With ASUS DCUT, 10/10? as much as I'd like to being a DC2T owner I will honestly say no. if he gets a perfectly working one, hell yea that's a 10/10, but if not, the evga ftw is the best all round 670 to get. the asus DC2 (non-top) and gigabyte windforce are second place. evga's warranty service murders the competition. if they did custom pcbs/cooler the other guys could just pack it up. truly evga's one shortcoming is that they only deal in reference designs (all though the ftw is a reference 680, not reference 670 design). --- "There is nothing new under EA." - Fony http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2363251 |
MadLaughter (Topic Creator) Posted 6/20/2012 8:46:43 PM | Alright. My current card has
the new Mobo (combo'd with the old case)
the EVGA 670
and Ripjaw RAM.
Only added 8 bucks to the total, as far as I can tell. Any further thoughts?
