GFX Card Question

[Scott88]

Hi, have been looking at various setups that i'm considering buying atm, and have came across this card.

'Asus GeForce GTX 560Ti DirectCU II TOP 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card'

I am planning on a system with the following;
- Power Supply: OCZ ZS 650w PSU / Something smiliar, 550W minimum.
- CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz Overclocked to 4.60GHz Sandybridge CPU
- Motherboard: Gigabyte Z68X-UD5 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
- RAM: 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit.

However, I was always intending on the following;

'Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 6950 "Dual Fan Edition" 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card'
Or
'Nvidia GTX 560Ti 2048MB GDDR5'.

Basically what I will be using my system for will be playing games. SWTOR, Diablo 3 when out, Some WoW, Starcraft 2, Dota 2 and have been pondering over whether or not to buy BF 3. All games to be able to be played at max settings.

So, my question, with the above spec, would the 1GB 560ti be more than enough for this? I get free BF3, which would save me some money, although not too fussed about the BF3. Card is cheapest of the 3.

Or would I be better getting the 6950/560ti 2GB?
From reading through forums, I get the impression 6950 seems to be better?

Bit much text, sorry about that but any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

You might be better of with a higher end card with more ram if you can afford it like the gtx 570 or ati 6950/6970.

Would run them all fine, prob wont notice a huge difference with a few eye candy bits turned off which hog fps.

Depends, if you game at 1650 then you should be fine with the 1GB. Without stating the resolution of your monitor you wont get the best advice. Beyond 1650 2GB should be the standard now.
