Inno3D GeForce GTX 780 iChill HerculeZ X3 Ultra DHS Edition OC Tool.

The scratches might be normal but impossible to know without seeing them. The logo is clear plastic, I doubt they were worried much about using 100% scratch free material.

If your not happy with it, I'd just return it

I'm not happy. What do you guys think of the Gigabyte 780 Ghz edition? I've never owned a gigabyte card ever.

Looks like a great card, and a nice price. Though it's factory overclock is lower than your Inno3D.

Not by much though.

Thanks everyone for the help...

Final 2 to decide on.... Gigabyte 780 ghz or the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Classified?

mmmmm??? Which one?

Classified out of those 2

In your opinion what's the best 780 Neil?

thefogo · 1 Dec 2013 at 13:06

The Classified is nice, though be aware it will run hotter and louder than your current one.

Is this the gcard with the longest name ever?

I thought the ACX cooler was one of the best? I guess not? I will say that the Inno3d card is super quiet and temps on heaven never went over 60c even after a 30mins.

I thought so too

It's pretty good, but it can't compete with the Inno3D due to the size.
In a room of reasonable temperature it will run at around 70C.

If it wasn't for the scratches and no OC headroom I would keep this card. Maybe I should play around with it for a day or too before I decide.

Could I OC it to match or go over the Inno3D card?

Shouldn't be too much of a problem. Mine runs at 1150Mhz just by increasing voltage and power limit.

When you were tying to overclock the card did you adjust the voltage/power limit? If not then you're obviously not going to get very far...

I have the 780SC in my lads set up and it performs well and runs cools.

As for the best - I'd say the Classy as it seems to perform the best from what I've read.

The only problem is what mem is on the card you get, which obviously effects performance to some degree.

If your not going to watercool and overvolt/clock, you won't get the best from the card.

If the above is of no interest to you, just get the cheapest you can find.

I did a little, but like I said it didn't go far

Is there a backplate on his 780SC? That's the titan cooler isn't? What backplate would fit. A titan or 780 backplate?
