Ok guys I have made my mind up to a extent and ordering my new gpu's tomorrow and getting 27" monitor later on as my current gpu the 560ti really wont handle the resolution.

The choices ive got too are:

x2 KFA2 GeForce GTX 660TI EX OC 3072MB
x1 KFA2 GeForce GTX 670 EX OC 4096MB
x2 MSI HD 7950 Twin Frozr III OC 3072MB

Im really unsure on the 7950's though as ive had ati cards before and hated the ccc of ati, also im worried about coil whine on the ati cards which has been widely reported with ati cards.

Ive got a maximum of about £550 to spend on the gpus and the 27" monitor I will be getting later on will either be a Dell or DGM so will be running in 1400p.

I am just looking for last minute advice ect before I pull the trigger tomorrow.
 
Yeah thats what I was thinking as I really like the MSI Frozr cooler but if I do go for the MSI 7950 what I could do is get 1 card now and the DGM monitor and get a second gpu later on for xfire?
 
Ok thanks guys will pull the trigger on the MSI HD 7950 Twin Frozr III OC 3072MB.

Do you think I should do as I mentioned above and rather than get x2 now get just the one and the DGM monitor then another later on?

And just to check the 7950s are better than the 660TI's?
 
Thanks again guys well x1 7950 and the DGM it is then but will order friday if im getting both hehe.

Appriciate your input guys cheers.
 
Yeah thats why I wont go for it when I see coil whine threads its normaly about the vtx cards. Decided to ditch the dgm / gpu purchase today and get the Dell 2731HM and get gpu at a later date.

I know I would regret going for the DGM not because of the warranty as OCUK is handling the warranty for 3 years on them but purely for the fact ive always wanted a Dell 27"
 
Yeah was along time ago think it was 4870s when they first came out I used ccc and I wasnt impressed, at least with the Dell monitor ive ordered today the gpu I get eventualy what ever it is will rock on the Dell.
