So this card uses the Reference cooler? Last I heard AMD reference coolers are terrible and would make this not worth buying.

works, buts its too loud fan, in games like BF4 (over 85% GPU procesor )need at last 80% of power fan to keep under 70ºC. Good card, but it's better one with a double fan or better cooling system.

they are loud but if you dont mind the noise they keep the card cool. but these cards are meant to be water cooled. they perform very very well. much better then after market cards. i love my xfx r9 290.

Reference coolers are horrible. Sounds like a jet-engine taking off. I ended up returning this one and backordering (2) XFX R9 290's DD coolers with the same lifetime warranty (with registration)

Reference card.....It is the same as any graphic card.... mine is very quiet and I have had it for a year.. no problems.... The price is great besides PNY's lifetime warranty.... Tom's hardware tested it and 2 cards SLI ..out perform the Titan which is a 1000 dollar card.... 2 gtx 760's are half the price and mine does not get warm at all.... hope I answered your question

They are not the same card. This is the fully factory over clocked running at a clock of 1080Mhz and men at 5600Mhz. The other card has slower clocks. The clocks are higher because the chokes are better, and the chips were binned higher on this card. Check the serials if you want to confirm this. The OC potential is thus higher on this card.

I have a GTX 770, which as I understand is basically a GTX 680 chip that has already been overclocked by nVidia. Therefore, there really isn't much headroom for OC'ing the 770, but I'm sure some have tried. Google is your friend... :) I have OC'd previous nVidia cards and have good stable success, just be patient and do it slowly, stress the card (hopefully with game) and monitor temps all the time. It isn't a procedure for the lazy who want to shortcut... Good luck.

No, not even a little bit. This is for AMD processors, and ONLY AMD Processors using the AM3+ chipset. Please read through the specs....

That is a good question. I bought the card for fast data processing instead of gaming, so I would not be a good judge on this one.

Don't get it ... its WORTHLESS...... I bought it and took it off the same day . My card actually ran hotter ! I would stay away from it .

A reference card is the card that either Nvidia or AMD present to the board partners to create. The board partners can make the exact one or they can put their own tweaks into it ie. MSI twin frozer. The overclocked one provides better cooling but the drawback is that you can't put a waterblock on it if I can recall. The overclocked one would be better for lower Temps unless it's going to use water.

The Quad-core reference is a mistake. It would have to be an A10 for that. Just a typo.

I would avoid this MB. It has serious video chip failures.If you are intent on replacing the AMD cpu, I have one.

I am afraid I can't answer that. All I can say is that it is a strong mid range low profile card. Under heaviest loads, in small form factor boxes, it will heat up. For my purposes - to deal with this I added extra fans and moved the power supply outside the box. Obviously I am a fanatic - and work to keep my system components running under listed normal ranges.

NO, do not use with an amd.... i just went through quite a bit of returns and rebuilding because of this...i purchased the titan, which rocks btw, but was bottlenecked by the amd opteron processor i purchased...i returned that and got an intel i7 and now it flys... i definitely recommend pairing this card with an intel processor to take full advantage of that cards speed..hope that helps

depends on your cpu as well. your cpu could be bottle necking the performance of your card. it's overall a good card to upgrade to but make sure you got a good cpu as well with it or else you will experiance bottle necking with it. when i upgraded i got both a new cpu and gpu.

Get the one with ACX cooling instead.EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked w/ACX Cooler 3GB GDDR5 384bit Dual-Link DVI-I DVI-D HDMI DP SLI Graphics Cards 03G-P4-2884-KR

I don't know,it never worked for me. I crapped canned it and got a Nvidia GTX 660. I am VERY happy with it. I got the ASUS OC edition. I had used ATI/AMD almost exclusively until this card. I got the ol shove it from AMD. I'll never buy AMD again. I would say skip this card.

This model uses the stock cooler, the model number indicates so. http://www.scan.co.uk/products/3gb-gigabyte-gtx-780-ti-28nm-pcie-30-(x16)-7000mhz-gddr5-gpu-876mhz-boost-928mhz-cores-2880-dp-hdmi

Go to the Arctic website and they will have am updated list of cards it will be compatible with. Mine was not on the original list when it was released but it is listed on their site and works great once I got passed some installation isues. I am mining/folding on it now and it is running at 41c which is just above idle temp on the stock cooler.
