Lol. And it doesn't matter anyway because I just fresh installed 8.1 Professional and it works.

I'm on a throw-away FirePro 2270 now, and I'm not huge huge into gaming.
I'm assuming the bottom would be more effective on a 2.0 x16

Get the second one
EVGA is a better brand and 2gb compared to 1gb

This. I'd also be willing (although still hasn't happened) to side with Asus too because everything I've bought from them has yet to fail me.

GPU help pls:
Current/new build -
Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600
Zalman Z11 Plus ATX Mid Tower Case   
PSU OCZ ZT 750w 80plus Bronze Full Modular.

I have 3 screens, 1 TV (1920x1080), and 2 BenQ G920WL monitors (1440x900). Won't be gaming on all 3 (because of resolution differences blabla) but am hoping to upgrade them in the sometime in the future and get some 1440p monitors or something.

Budget is around £400, would prefer something that I can crossfire/sli in the future if need be.
Thanks

Have you tried the GTX 680?

[Treynolds416]

Have you tried the GTX 680?

Why would you get the 680 when the 770 beats it for WAY less money...
You could almost get a 780 for the same amount of money as the card you linked, seriously wtf are you smoking

is this desktop build good?
