So the normal 770 uses a similar PCB to the 780 right? But I saw that EVGA will have a 770 Classified which looks like it uses the same PCB as the 680 Classified. Theyre different length PCBs right?

yes the Classified is about 1" shorter, but also 1" wider as well, it sticks out beyond the slot bracket so it may hit the side panel fan in cases is why I wouldn't get one.

Shrug* I think the wide PCB is fine. Just need to double check your case. Plus I dont use a case with a side fan. I dont like them very much. Too troublesome when you take your panel off. Also, I like a nice clean window side panels,and I dont like fan mounts on my windows.

Yes the 770 Classified and 680 Classified are similar in PCB design.

And the 770/780/titan have a different PCB from the 680 and 670 (non shortened) right?

S2000Gan And the 770/780/titan have a different PCB from the 680 and 670 (non shortened) right? 780 and Titan share PCB reference design. As for the 770, seems to be based off the Titan design also but with a GK104 instead of the GK110. Reference 680  Reference 770  Reference 780  GTX Titan

I'm glad they wen't back to the side by side PCI-E power plugs, I never did like the stacked ones on the 670/680

I miss the top PCI slot being just vent space. Dual DVI + mini HDMI or mini DP

S2000Gan I miss the top PCI slot being just vent space. Dual DVI + mini HDMI or mini DP Most motherboards put the first PCI-E slot as the second slot down on the case, and the third slot has all the extra ports, so the top one is still free for venting or to use for a dedicated sound card so its not in the way with a SLI config
