another "what card"!? thread..

[spudgun79]

hello good people..

so I'm looking at getting a rig very similar to the below

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-176-OE

I keep coming back to the GTX 470 deal and thinkin about SLIing 2 of the bad boys. However, do you think it's worth it or would a single 570 be better.

Also looking into the 560 Ti and the 480. sticking with nvidia just to keep things simple (which is the stuggle!)

I'm researching at the minute so forgive the blatant ignorance but if you'd recommend a decent card that's going to last me a couple of years that would be a big help.

Nice one..

Two gtx 470s would be faster than any single card solution out there atm.

so 2 x MSI GeForce GTX 470 Twin Frozr II 1280MB £287
VS
1x EVGA GeForce GTX 570 1280MB £304

still win for 470?

Just bought two myself while the deal was still available =)

Looking at most benchmarks, the sli setup beats the pants of every singled card.

If you can take the heat from the 2x470s then that'd be an amazing setup for under £300.

2x470 all the way
