Take as a replacement for GTX 660. Great power, same noise levels, works fine with 600w PSU.

Picked mine up much later into its life cycle (2016) for free off of my employer. It's been a fantastic 1080 card but with the latest cycle of games its finally become necessary to replace.

Still very powerful, with little OC it can reach 970/780 ti, and if you buy 6GB version you can play everything in ultra with great fps!!!

I guess it's pretty good? You're better off with a 1060 3GB right now.

The GTX 780 when it came out was one of the best cards available for consumers, nowdays thanks to the 3GB of Memory it can still play most games on Ultra settings at 1080p60, with a perfomance closer to a GTX 1060 3GB, is one of the best budget CPUs thanks to it low perfomance on cryptoming and higher power consumption.
