6950 or 480 SOC

[MisfiTTTTT]

I am torn between the 6950 (flashed to 6970) and the gigabyte 480 Super Overclocked.

Can anyone suggest which card would be best to go into a intel 2500k system?

A 6970 vs GTX480 test - http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/292?vs=309

I think I would have the GTX480

i just picked between these 2 cards and went 480soc and very happy with it indeed used ati for a long time now first nvida card in some years

the 480 soc runs cool 37 ilde 74 load on stock speed but you can get a lot more of an oc than the factory one got mine running at 900/1800/2000 on 1.25 volts 40 ilde 85 load

go for the 480 soc id say unless you have higher res then 1080

Had a 6970 and went to the 480 SOC and it is MUCH better in every aspect IMO
