February 12, 201412 yr Hi folks, Recently I sold my good old GTX 660. Now I'm thinking about a GTX 770, 780 or 780Ti for X-Plane, FSX and P3Dv2. The GTX 660 doesn't really do a good job with X-Plane, especially with HDR and AA turned on. FSX can occasionally go beyond what GTX 660 can take too. My CPU is a i7-3770K overclocked to 4.5GHz. So which graphics card should I choose? Is the 780Ti too powerful for X-Plane and FSX? Does the GTX 770 have a huge advantage over the 660? The GTX 780 seems like a good balance between budget and performance, but I would like to hear your opinions. Your ideas are always welcome. Thanks, Zicheng Cai Zicheng Cai

After all the 3770K was the king of IVB. Thank you anyway. Zicheng Cai
