Graphics Card Upgrade?? (With 7950 in mind)

As can be seen from my previous posts, I built my new system around March/April last year iirc, however, one thing I didn't do was buy a new g/card to go with it. I'm still using my trusty Zoltac GTX 260 v2.

With the not too far away release of the new 7950, I was thinking of going for it! I have been wary of AMD's drivers, and haven't used Raedon cards for some years now, but surely things have improved since then?

So, I game at 1920x1200, have no intention of changing my Hazbro monitor, so do you gurus out there think the 7950 would be the card for me?

While my trusty 260 gives me satisfactory pleasure, I know i'm missing out on DX11 goodness, and am looking to spend my hard earned tax rebate on increased eye candy. At said resolution, I know the 7970 is overkill, will the 7950 be the card of my dreams,......do you think?

Views of OK vets much appreciated!!:)
 
honestly we wont know till we see the stats, it could end up being a bad card, ultimately at ur res if its anything like the 7970 you wont really need it but then who actually does, e-peen and bloated prices will ensue, leaving us mere mortals to pick up cheaper mid ranged cards
