    Gigabyte GTX 770 or HD 7970

    I am looking to build a gaming pc and right now am looking at 2 video cards that I cannot make my mind on. Should I go for the Gigabyte GTX 770 or the HD 7970 video card for gaming purpose. I have done some research and found out that Radeon cards are better supported with their graphics driver, is that true? I am going to use this card on an overclocked system. Thanks for any information.

    Well, if you are planing to do some overclocking then the Amd Radeon HD 7970 graphics card will be a good choice but if you not planning to overclock the cards then go for the Gigabyte GTX 770 as it is quite better as compared to the AMD one. One thing that is noted here is that you will get 1080p resolution from both the cards.

    Both the graphics cards that you have listed are very good. But since I am an AMD fan I will go with the HD 7970 and after overclocking this card you will get a bit more performance compared to the Gigabyte Gtx 770. I have watercooled my GPU and bought a refrence pcb card since it is quite difficult to find a full waterblock for a custom pcb card.

    Since you are going to use the graphics card for gaming, then you should go with the AMD card because many games now a days are being optimised for Amd cards only. The cards are also coming the same price list but the decision rests upon you. If you play games that use CUDA then go for Nvidia or go for Amd since the games play better on Amd actually.
