The GTX 780 Performed better than I expected.
I was surprised by this card, it is more relevant than expected. I bought this for a low budget Mini-ITX B85 build. Paired with a 4790K and 16 Gb DDR 3, this card will play all of my titles at decent quality settings with good frame rates. Even more recent titles like Borderlands 3 ran well on this card at 1080 with a mix of low/ medium settings. Most of todays games only require a minimum of 2 Gb VRAM to run.
Temps and noise are good, the card has a max temp of 89 and has not gone above 72 at 100% usage. There is some fan noise but it is quieter than a PS4.
If you have a 6th gen or older CPU, this card pairs nicely in earlier hardware. If you have a newer CPU go with a GTX 980 or 1080. If you are on a budget, the GTX 780 and the AMD RX 480 are good starter cards
