Very quick question... which 7850?

[RooBoonix]

Hello everyone,

Buying PC tonight, and I am stuck between 2 graphics cards..

An MSI HD 7850 Twin Frozr III OC - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-154-MS&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=411

Or

A Gigabyte HD 7850 OC Windforce 2x - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-100-GI&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=411

So, which one is better? I was going for the MSI as I like the look and make, but if the Gigabyte is better, and i'm not knocking the brand, then I will go for that!

Thanks,
Cam.

both of those are great tbh.

Oh ok cool, as long as there aren't any major problems with the gigabyte then i'll have it! Faster clock... meh. It's mine

gigabyte are a solid brand.

Both coolers are awesome, both have 3 year warranties.
Gigabytes rma center is in the uk, msi is in holland, but msi warranties are handled by ocuk anyway.

imo the msi looks better. Both will overclock well (criminal not to with a 7850)

Not much to choose between them tbf.

Thanks,

At least I know I have 2 options now

I'd go MSI as it's £10 cheaper. Both cards are pretty equal. The MI is cooler, the giga is quieter

Both cards look really solid!

You may want to wait for weekend specials - one of those cards may be put on special
