Hi! Im thinking about buying a 6970 graphics card, would it be a overkill?

Im going to play World of Warcraft, MW2, Fallout: New Vegas, BF:BC2 and MW3 + BF3 when they come out.

I am going to use a single monitor, and ultra graphics

Probably a 32" TV (1080p) but when I am going to LAN's im going to use a 24"

I am thinking about buying the 6950 instead of the 6970.
I looked at some benchmarks on anandtech.com
And it is only 2 - 5 FPS difference between the 6950 and 6970. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/293?vs=292
