Dilema

Well, I should know better, as I've been reading up various GPU's pros and cons, but now that I am letting go of my 6950's, I'm torn between the sensible option, a 7850 (Twin Frozr 4), or the posh option, a GTX670 (most likely Windforce, or KFA2 EX OC), maybe even considering a 7970 given they price cuts.

I'm not really bothered with AMD or NVidia, having had both I'm happy either way. Wondering if a 7850 will be good enough, or should I just go 670... :'(

I'm gaming at 1920 x 1200p, and I can live without anti aliasing quite happily. I'm mostly interested in low noise and temps, and of course decent performance.

Quite liking the 7850 Twin Frzr Power edition tbh... But then, the Windforce... AAAAaaaaAAaah!!!

I'm moving away from dual GPU.

Im running 2 6950s and wont be upgrading anytime this year. Why do you want to get rid of them? If there performing well enough id stick with em, plenty of life in them.

If noise and heat are an issue. Fit 2 acceleros to the 6950s, i did and the noise is so much lower than stock and great temps to.

How would they fit on a 6950 TOXIC? They are 6970 rev 2 from what I've read.

670 posh option?! rofl.

That's over £300. That's the price of a CPU, motherboard and memory. Yes, pretty expensive.

All right. You lot have me convinced, and tbh I think I was being a bit silly. I'm selling one since I find 6950 xfire redundant, and keeping the other one. The custom cooler looks like a good idea, maybe for later.
