hey guys

i have to choose between these two cards. i normally play games like fifa 11, pes 2011, nba 2k11, dragon age and battle field on my tv(1920x1080) and i want to link it to my 27 imc(2560 by 1440). do you guys think it worth to spend 90 pound more for a 6950? i want this card to last for 2 years max.

(currently using 5770 but can not link to imac....)
thank you very much

I would go with the 6950, link below shows comparison in performance.

I would also remove the price and competitor mention.

do you think i should go for the 1g or 2g version?

As the price difference was minimal I would go with the 2gb version
