The card will be use for BF3 @ 1680x1050, then Diablo 3 when it's out. I can't decide between these 2 cards. The 560 offers more ram but the 570 more frames. I've heard the 560 can clock quite well but to be honest I'm a complete novice in this area. I run 2 monitors also for day to day use if that makes any difference.

Any others that are worth considering?
 
Do you game on 2 monitors ? I see you said you use 2 for day to day stuff, but if you game on one monitor only get the 570. If you game on both maybe worth saving up for a gtx 580 or even this card here :-

It's a cracking deal.

You can't game on two ;)

Also, that HIS card is't really the best card. 3 months warranty, bad brand. Cooler is ugly (if that matters to you:p)

I'd get the 570
 
Cheers. Think I'll go with the 570 SOC, have read some really good things on it.

B Grade cards don't include free games, despite what the description says. Have a look at the banner at top here:
