Great next-gen card for price
By JJ4prez
Hello all, I got this to replace my HD6870. So far so good, I got to OC it another 5% or so from it's factory settings before getting weird glitches. My case currently is not setup with max fans and ventilation so I am sure I could do more if I tried. This is the REV2.0, so if you intend on buying a Gigabyte Windforce GTX 760, make sure you get the 2.0 and not the 1.0. Out of all the GTX 760's, I think this is the best bang for your buck... Factory settings come pretty much at the highest base of all 760's, and it has exceptional cooling so you can OC very easily. The only bad thing about this card is that it's long, longer than all 760's. I had to redo my cable management and take out a couple HDD bays. So if you are running multiple RAID setups or something, you might have to rearrange.

Pros
1. Plays all my games at max. BF3, Tomb Raider, FC3! (a little choppy though imho), Skyrim with a ton of terrain overhauls. Pretty much any game from <2012 it will play on max. I mostly got this card for BF4.
2. It came with Splinter Cell Blacklist, which I gave to a friend.
3. It has great cooling mechanics, it stays A LOT cooler than my HD6870.
4. I adjusted my fans to always be at 60% or higher. Factory comes at 20% and goes up with temp increases. The fan is dead silent at 60%, which was nice. My 6870 would sound like a jet engine at 60-70% fan speed.
5. Compares extremely well against other 760's.
6. You cannot beat 259.99 for next gen stuff, I paid ~240 (had some credit).
7. SLI GTX 760's have Titan-like performance/quality...for half the price.
8. The Windforce guru 2.0 is a great tool to OC, extremely easy to operate.

Cons
1. It's extremely long, won't fit in most smaller mid-cases.
2. They need to do a better job at identifying it's a REV2.0 model.
3. You need to OC this a little bit to get it to it's full potential. I was getting choppy results with BF3 on max, OCing it just 5% did the trick.
4. Nvidia experience is a joke, don't download it.

None of the cons will get me to rate it a 4 star, I did my research before buying.

Games like Witcher 3, BF4, Rome 2 will need cards like these to run great... So prepare yourself.

Thanks for reading.

Runs great
By Mathew Kestner
This card has been running most of todays games at nearly maximum settings. Skyrim was set near ultra with this and it ran very well.

This card isn't as powerful as the others, of course, but this is a tiered purchase method with graphics cards anyway.

This card runs incredibly quiet. I am so thrilled that even while putting this to the test, it keeps very cool. The most the card has seen was 50C, and I think that is due to the cramped confines of the Storm Scout it went into. It also has a tight fit within the Storm Scout 1 case. I saw a 770 with this same fan style go into a Storm Scout 2 without a problem, so Storm Scout 1 owners be aware of this. You have to make it fit into the Storm Scout 1.

I have a 680 with the exact same fan system, and in my HAF case it never reaches 50C, so far I saw 47C when it was struggling with a crazy Crysis 2 high res textures issue.

This card is a very worthy investment at this price range, and with the cooling system it has it will keep running for quite some time. I recommend to anybody wanting an upgrade in this price range and doesn't know where else to look, it is a great great card. I hope this has helped.

Definately worth every dollar
By metalman1884
This card is awesome. I sold my 6 month old 660Ti with a single fan for almost as much as this new one costs and this card actually got a better score by almost 10% in benchmarks! Old one ran hot and did get loud. This one I can barely tell is in there working away during demanding games.
Note to future self: "Do not buy a GPU with a single fan ever again"
