Which gtx 570 to go for?

[fireisdangerous]

As title suggests im looking to upgrade to a gtx570 frm a 5850, fancy getting a nice boost in graphics for all the new games comming out soon.

All the 570's look similar, which ones would u recomend, which one do you have? real user opinions are always better than actual reviews.

thanks tony

how does their warrenty compare to the others?

10 yrs and the rmas take a few days with a fairly big chance of an upgrade aswell
They also let you rmove the cooler and even sometimes replace the car even if ur PSU killed it!!!!¡

Why not go for the 195 quid 480?

TBH the 480 is a better deal.
Even better- 470 SLI thats on offer ATM

but the 480's are super loud and emit loads of heat as far as i know, i may well be wrong

i was tempted to get another 5850 but would rather have a single card,

whats the scaling like on the 470 ?

Im torn between the Gainward GeForce GTX 570 Phantom and the EVGA GeForce GTX 570 Superclocked.

Does anyone have either of these cards?

What are your stock and load temps ?

I've got the Gainward GLH version of the card, and would be intrested to see the temp comparison.

I'm finding mine very loud and the temps seem abit higher than reviews suggest.

Cheers if you can help

EVGA has by far the best warranty and RMA.
The Gainward card is silent though
470 SLI is better than any current single card.
Scaling not as good as the ATI 6xxx cards but still fairly good. See if you can ask someone like Setter or Rroff - they have 470 SLI.
