[shamozer]

Basically i cant decide on what new GPU/GPU's to get for my system, Can any one please suggest a few? currently the best option im seeing is to buy 2x 6950's . Im not a fan boy of either ati or nvidia so thats not a problem il buy what evers best.

My current system specs are:

i7 930 @ 2.80GHz
8.00GB DDR3 RAM
Win 7 Ultimate 64bit
Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7 Motherboard
1000w PCU
Xfire HD 5830
Cosmos S case

I'd go with your plan and crossfire 2 6950s. Truly awesome performance.

It depends on what you want really, the Nvidia GTX 580 is the best single GPU card out there at the moment, but X fired 6950's will blow that out the water, so i guess it comes down to are you willing to run 2 cards and accept the added heat / noise that they bring with it.

If you are going the GTX 580 route this seems tobe the best out there at the moment -http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-133-MS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1812

Best would be next gen £200~£250 28nm cards on SLI/Crossfire

6950 2GB x 2 CF = still the best bang for buck.

you can also get 2 6950s for less than £400 if you look around.

Sorry, I meant if you can wait, you should probably wait for 7950...if they really are launched within the next few months.
