This may be of help deciding which gpu to go for: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vcVoSVtamcoGj5sFfvKF_XlvuviWWveJIg_iZ8U2bf0/pub?output=html#
I have a 960, 780ti and 980ti all folding with no issues, not sure on AMD cards but haven't heard anything bad

thats useful info..a gtx960 looks to be a bit better than a 7970 with a lot less power and the same or a little more £$ second hand.....how many post is it till i have access the second hand goodies on here??
has it always been that hi?......so about 2029 for me then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you're thinking of gtx960, I have a leaf blower reference cheapest of the lot KFA 960 and running it with power limited to 50% in afterburner to keep it cool and quiet and it is getting 115k ppd with temp of just 50c. If you got one with a better cooler and ran it at 100% with higher clock speed you'd be nearer or around 200k ppd I reckon. When the current wu finishes I'll run it at full pelt for a while and let you know the ppd
OK, here's a screenie with power limit at 50%
And another with power limit at 100%
Not as much difference as I thought there would be, a better cooler and higher clocks would boost the ppd further. Not bad though for a 120w vga card
