Duda Windforce vs. DirectCUII

[splendid11]

Hello!

A friend asked me to build a PC for gaming and I decided on an Nvidia GTX 760 but I don't know why I decided on the brand, the gigabyte with winforce costs 246€ and the asus 255€ with DirectCUII.

I was looking for information and according to what they say asus has better cooling and that the gigabyte with winforce is noisier.

Which one is better in terms of cooling and noise?
Which one would you choose?

Well, it depends, above all, if you have space to mount the gigabyte that are almost 30 cm.
The rest, well, both systems are the best in terms of dissipation, with the data in hand, windforce is somewhat more efficient than DCU2, although it is noisier when it is at full capacity.

Personally, apart from the dimensions, both are very good cards and choosing one or the other is a matter of taste.

There is no problem with the space, I already have in mind which case to buy with space for long cards like the gigabyte.

Spending 250€ for a 760, when GTX770s are under 300€ :facepalm:

Cheers!

Why do you pay more for the 760? we have it cheaper here.
Asus GeForce GTX 760 DirectCU II OC 2GB GDDR5 90YV04L2-M0NA00 Graphics Card
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 OC 2GB GDDR5 GV-N760OC-2GD 2.0 Graphics Card
MSI GeForce GTX 760 Twin Frozr OC 2GB GDDR5 N760 TF 2GD5/OC Graphics Card
I have a 780 WF and the truth is that at least mine is quite cool, with the fans at full blast it sounds but it's not a scandal, what playing I usually don't need more than 60% of revolutions and like that you almost don't hear it, I hear other fans of the case before the graphics card, but the Asus's dissipation seems better, besides it's a little shorter.
