I'm definitely getting a 7950 next week when I get paid but what one I have £400.00 i was thinking about sapphire as they are highly rated but power colour also seems like a good option any suggestions? :)
 
the 7950 will bottleneck my cpu nevermind a 7970 i have an amd phenom II 965 b/e @ 3.7 and 350 seams a better deal than paying an extra 100 for a little bit more performance im just stuck on choosing between sapphire or powercolour :p

upgrading from a 6850
 
I got this one and I'm very pleased so far :)

You were ready to spend £400 earlier. :rolleyes:

Just get the absolute cheapest one you can find then.
 
If noise and cooling matter to you then definitely the Sapphire 7950 OC (I have one, a dream) otherwise I believe the cheapest one will do the job perfectly.
