GTX 750ti vs. 750

[Telecaster]

I need a card for an ITX build with restricted card length, the two that jump out at me specifically are the two Palit cards with the passive coolers, the price difference is £20, my question is purely down to performance per £, is the plain 750 a massive drop in performance?

Unfortunately most reviews of the basic 750 are of the 1GB version where as the Palit is 2GB so it's kinda hard to compare.

Either would be great, low power, quiet and fairly cool, I guess it comes down to the performance difference which I'm finding it hard to gauge.

Nobody?

I know it's not the latest and greatest cards we're talking about and in the short/ITX GFX card market there are a couple of much higher performing cards available, but I'm really looking into having things as quiet as possible so the passively cooled cards are very interesting to me.

750ti for the extra 20 is worth it.

Thanks, the Palit 750ti is also back in stock here at OC so that makes it even more tempting. I think I'll go for one.

What's your budget? There are small 970's you know?

I also agree that the 750ti is worth the extra over the 750.

Budget wont stretch to the 970, plus heat and noise are higher on the list of priorities than pure performance and I think the cut down 970 will be both hot and loud in a small case with minimal airflow.

Cheers anyway, I had thought about one but couldn't justify it. 750ti ordered anyway, should be a nice, small, low power, quiet and reasonable performing machine when finished.
