Which GPU or CF????

Just get one anyway, free games are nice if you want those games but games are always on special offer through steam or other places anyway.
 
Just my thoughts but i dont think 7950 crossfire can be beat for bang for buck, if i did not have one 7970 already then 7950 crossfire would be in my pc
 
I wouldn't get that msi card it has bad cooling go for an msi or gigabyte with a 3 fan cooler.

The 7950 and 7970 are still overpriced imo though as you can beat them for less than £200 albeit second hand 2x 6950 will be touching a 7970.

which card is bad mate

what would you get then
 
IIRC those MSI's are the newer/2nd models which dont have the problem the first/old models have.

My XFX 7950 DD is voltage locked @ 1.08v but through TRIXX I manage to up this to 1.13v which allowed me to get 1120/1430 OC. Hope that helps :)

That msi card with only one little fan on it in the middle means it will get hot and very loud.Get one of the cards from this thread http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18524382

£150 worth of game codes you can keep or sell on after thus further lowering the cost, personally i'd get the twin fanned sapphire 7950 or the twin fanned msi 7950

You could always get the single fan msi one and change the cooler to something better though.

I just hate leaf blower style coolers and single fan coolers as I Cant stand the noise levels.
