NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780

The good news is, with the release of the GTX 780 Ti, the GTX 780 's price is getting more discount. The GTX 780 is much more expensive than the GTX 680 as it costs a whopping $ 649. Compare this to the GTX 680, which came originally at a price of $ 499. Meanwhile, the AMD closest equivalent card is the HD 7970 GHz Edition which costs $ 499.

Spec for spec, this GTX 780 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 680, by boasting 8.2 % more fps. The GTX 780 has 3 GB RAM compared to the GTX 680 's 2 GB video memory.

Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 780 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 680 and it really justifies an upgrade. Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, HD 7970 GHz Edition, the GTX 780 was -5.9 % slower.

For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Strange Brigade, Valorant at 62 fps to 97 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 80 fps. For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 79 fps to 79 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 79 fps.

For 2160p 4K, we were able to play Valorant at 69 fps to 69 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 69 fps.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570

The GTX 580 might be the high-end flagship of the latest Fermi 2.0 set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most mid-range PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 570 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 349. NVIDIA ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Fermi 2.0 graphics card inside the GTX 570, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

Spec for spec, this GTX 570 leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 470, by boasting 43.1 % more fps. In our synthetic benchmarks, the GTX 570 blows past the GTX 470 and, amazingly, even the GTX 480 as well.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, HD 6970, the GTX 570 was 6.2 % faster. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 570 consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 470 and it really justifies an upgrade.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 / i7-3770K

For the most part, the GTX 780 is still capable of playing modern games, but you would have to reduce settings to sustain those higher framerates. If keeping graphics quality settings closer to ultra or high is important, there are a few options for upgrades. It is worth noting that the GTX 780 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. This combination between GTX 780 and Intel Core i7-3770K @ 3.50GHz has less than 8% bottleneck in many games and is perfect match to avoid FPS loss. Deciding whether to invest so much money in a high-end GPU like GTX 780 requires careful thought. This combination between GTX 780 and Intel Core i7-3770K @ 3.50GHz is a perfect match to avoid FPS loss. With current 3072 MB RAM, the GTX 780 can have very few memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 / i7-975

It is worth noting that the GTX 570 is a very power hungry card and requires a decent power supply unit. With current 1280 MB RAM, the GTX 570 can have serious memory-related bottlenecks in more modern games. It is important to know that GTX 570 's max load temperature is very high and might require custom cooling solutions. This combination between GTX 570 and Intel Core i7-975 @ 3.33GHz has less than 15% bottleneck in many games and can cause minor FPS loss.
