The game is a typical linear first-person shooter, but offers a talent tree, fast paced action and one-on-one duels with special game mechanics.

Overall, the card is almost inaudible in idle and quiet while gaming, but there just is no improvement over the already quiet reference cooler.

The GTX 770 WindForce OC is no different, but the improvement over the reference design cooler is, nevertheless, not that big because NVIDIA's cooler is already quite good.
