Need advice on GFX card - £200

OR the 560TI 448 edition if you are willing to pay a bit more and aren't gaming above 1920x1200 ;)

Better than all current ones listed here by a good bit, especially when overclocked, and the whole 2GB debate means xxxx all for res below 1920x1200.

As you can see from these reviews (zero difference between the 6950 1GB and 2GB apart from a substantial difference in the min FPS when 4xAA is applied, but a single card below 570 levels isn't really designed to run BF 3 fully maxed out, need a 580 or equivalent or SLI/crossfire):

unless you want to play BF3 on ultra settings...

Why on earth wouldn't you?

For the extra £30 surely the 2GB is a no brainer in terms of future proofing? Especially at 880mhz, I'm sure you could squeeze over 900mhz out if it making it the quickest 560ti 384.
