Spec Thread..?

Hi,

I was thinking of getting another 6950 (CF) but i suppose i could sell mine and get a 7970 with the same money, near enough

Which would be most worthwhile? purely on performance, not bothered about any a that power saving junk lol

Cheers

i have my 6950 at 900/1325 which is the max in CCC, had to put the power up 20% tho otherwise it crashed after a while of gaming, would two OC cards beat an OC 7970?

the same card again is 250 on Ocuk and a friend offered me 180 for mine, the 7970 would only be a few extra 10's on top,

i saw some clock speeds on the 3D mark ranks that where crazy high (7970)

the 6950 is only getting about 30-40 frames on the dx11 games maxed out (1920x1200)

Wait for nv to release their offerings first

Febuary? NVidia cards are usually more expensive at lauch is that right?
spose it would drop the price of ATI

Personally i'd use the money to get rid of your H100 and go custom water

LOL - you really like water huh, maybe next time

Lol, im so easily swayed...

Next question, which one is best?

Do they all come with reference cooler? (looks like it from pics)

 

[Dan2kx]

Which 7970?

The MSI or Gigabyte. This is because of te excellent CS And RMA.

Sorry, thats what i meant, MSi then, since thats what i got now
Might wait till next week see if its on offer.

When is 7950 out? will that alter price (of the 7970)?

 

[Dan2kx]

ok, any news on any non reference coolers? like TFIII etc, since im not into that (proper) water cooling stuff (just yet lol)

 

[Dan2kx]

like the 3 fan setup, looks cool (pun intended)

are those just for 7950 though or will they stick em all over the place?
why do they even bother with the reference coolers? i think they all provide alterations sooner or later?

EDIT

I really should check for typos before i send the post, sigh
