Btw what you doing with your 560Ti? I would buy it if at decent price
You have to pay the nVidia tax. 7950s are cheaper but faster than GTX670s, there isn't much reason to choose a 670 over a 7950
I could ditch the solidstate and go for the 7970 easily but i read that you would get the most improvement for money with an SSD.
Yer ive been looking at bundles but they come with ram + cooler etc which i dont need i already have pretty decent of both.
Ive decided to just go with;
Ordering
Intel Core i5 3570K 3.4GHz
Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H
OCZ 120GB Agility 3 SSD
Coolermaster MegaFlow 200mm Transprent Red LED Silent Fan
Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Paste
EVGA GTX 670 FTW 2048MB
Already Have
Corsair H60 Liquid Cooling
16gb Corsair Vengeance 1600
Coolermaster Storm Enforcer
Samsung 1TB Spinpoint F3
OCZ 650w ZS
All of the items you see above , they look/sound good ?
I appreciate everybody assisting me etc im going to go with the EVGA GTX 670 2gb FTW which pecnarf recommended i know its above £300 but my current card is a EVGA and i havent found any problems with it except maybe some high temps and im used to Nvidia cards.
Hmm thanks for the replies, plenty of info to mull over. Am i right in thinking a 4GB GTX 670 wont do much for me as i game at 1920*1200?
Bit unfair a comment, seems you have a biased opinion. The GTX 670 is a very good card. and they are fairly evenly priced now. As I stated, in our house we have both 7970 3gb and gtx 670 2gb and they are both great cards. Our 7970 was £20 cheaper than the GTX 670 was (but both bought for under 230).
Its personal preference really. they are great cards and AMD has beefed up their drivers, but Nvidia were great out the box anyways.
such a quandry, all the benchamrks i have seen show the 670 beating the 7950 and in some cases the 7970 (and 680). Im not fussy which i go for just want the best possible, i was leaning for 670 but what i have read here points to the 7950, do the new drivers really have that much of a boost, impressive. I am now thinking about this would that be worth the extra spend over the 7950/670. I tend to play BF3 mostly.
i have seen that AMD will be releasing new cards in jan/feb potentially would it be worth waiting and either getting one of the new ones/a current one at reduced price. Just wondering whether a price drop of current cards when new ones come out would be significantly less than current price, although currently get free games?
