Hi, my bro's looking into a new card and has seen these two both sitting @ £180

OcUK GeForce 7950 GT 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-046-OK)

OcUK MSI GeForce 7900 GTO SILENT 512MB GDDR3 VIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-041-OK)

but I'm not sure which on is the better of the two. I'm not really clued up on the new 7950 range so anyone know how they match up to each other??

Also he's got an SLI board so is wanting to go nVidia over the ati options so no "go for an x1900" posts please ;)
 
What I was thinking as they are said to hit gtx speeds easily, just wasn't sure where the new 7950 series came into play about.
 
The way I see it is the 7950 series is replacing the 7900GT series as the middle range nVidia cards. The GTO are on offer for a short time only and can hit 7900GTX speeds.

As the GTX owns the GT cards, it's obvious which one to purchase.

7900 GTO
