7970 choice ...

[baz2963]

With the advent of the 12.10 drivers, it looks as though the 7970 is worth looking over.

I currently have a 560 ti and was waiting till this point really when prices settled and drivers matured, I think I am most certainly swayed to the 7970 at this point.

Was looking at the HIS HD 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition and MSI HD 7970 Lightning BOOSTED Edition. I trust that these two are the fastest 7970's ??

Any thoughts on these ??

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks.. I haven't overclocked any hardware for some time and not really wishing to really.

So, no just a regular user... so which do you recommend for good speeds out of the box ??

Thanks for your help dude.

So, if I decide to overclock which is best ? .. I tend not to because of longevity but I guess cards are pretty hardcore nowadays..

Thanks for all you help .. In the end I ended up ordering 2 x HIS iceq 7950's

Cheers
