First time ATI user in over 5+ years, not too sure if this is a stupid questions or not but.....

Is there a program like Nvidiainspector but for ATI cards?

Thanks.
 
My bad.. I posted before I'd even realised what it Nvidiainspector was. I've only used it once way back when for FSX.

if im not mistaken, you can make profiles in CCC and save them, then load them as needed.

Ahh ok, I'll have to look into the CCC more then just the quick once over a did.

Haven't used a ATI card in many many years and its a nice change.

Looking forward to see what this card can do!

The price from a 670 to a 680 wasn't worth it and for cheaper money i could get the fastest card on the planet with 3gb of memory. In the end it was a complete no brainer.

4gb 670 was around £380 and the 4gb 680 was around £440

3gb MSI Lightning 7970 was around £299. It was on offer, so it was a complete steal. Have it now overclocked to 1.2Ghz core and 1.5ghz memory.

Plus i wanted to experience what "i had been missing" in a sense. I may not of been missing anything, i just wanted to make that change.

Like when all you eat is 1 type of food for ages, the change is nice after a while.
 
yeah for 299£,it was a steal.
how did I miss that?was on overclockers?
I'm about to buy card myself,thought about gtx670 now after info about gtx660 price/performance,but if I had a chance to get lightning for 299£ I wouldn't think twice.
With that OC of yours how many % is your card better than stock gtx670?
3gb of memory is really nice bonus as well.bulletproof for few years

There isn't much in it, but in the end your paying nearly £100 extra premium for essentially a lower performing card.

Towards the end of my 2x1gb GTX 460's life the drivers from Nvidia (WHQL) ended up creating a lot of system instability for me. So i really started to resent them.
 
Does anyone know of any program's like above where I can benchmark and get a graph like above?
Regards
