What GPU

[Mr.Cookie]

hi folks

Just about to buy a GPU not sure whether 7850 or 7950, CPU is an i5 @4.4Ghz, what would you get, mainly driving games and fancy far cry3 and GTA5 when it's out.

i'm open to either just can't go much more than £250 the only 670 is the MSi one

Loving my 7950 m8, i wouldnt go for the XFX one though if ya sticking to the stock cooler, theyre far too noisey, but theres much quieter ones out there.

I was looking at the HIS or the MSi twin frozr

 

[Mr.Cookie]

It's on its way

should i install any software supplied with 7950 or just download catalyst drivers from AMD

 

[Mr.Cookie]
